Saw this on Horsepower TV. anyone have any experience with these ? I am installing an Innovative AFR gage, and this seems fairly easy.

Looks pretty good.
I know around here you can get one welded in for about $25

Those look like a good choice, if it were up to me I would definitely have them welded in as I LOATHE exhaust leaks and wouldn't want to take my chances.

My local muffler shop welded mine for $10 and a few minutes of seat time in the passenger seat down the road and back. That guy could not stop smiling!

IMHO welded is THE ONLY way to go.
I don't ever want to think about an exhaust leak.
Mine was done by a body shop.
NO OPTION ON THE WELDING!

That's one of the places that you absolutely don't want to have an exhaust leak. Outside air that enters close to the O2 sensor will effect your A/F readings. If this product can be installed without the possibility of leaks, then it would be an alternative to welding. BUT, I'll get mine welded since the owner of the muffler shop that I use is an excellent welder.:)

Folks:
thanks for all the responses. Welding wins the poll.
