Good morning, Brickster!
Sorry for the delay in responding; I don't spend much time at the home computer these days.
I bought a Bosh original O2 sensor from one of the parts suppliers recommended by this site and spent about $120.00. I replaced the O2 sensor myself in the carport using the OEM jack and two jack stands. You would certainly need to use a specialty O2 socket which I got for about $8.00. The worst part of the job was getting the socket onto the sensor since the clearance is so tight. I ended up loosening the exhaust pipe connection just behind the O2 sensor to get a little more movement. Since I'm anal-retentive I spent a while making sure the replacement harness was not twisted and was routed exactly (or better) than the previous harness which was installed by the local dealer. Other than time consumming I would say this is a rather easy DIY repair.
