To cover yourself with the seller i'd be inclined to ask them that question, such that if you fit it and it's "used" they'll still take it back if it doesn't work.

In short, I would be getting the proper sensor. The grommet and cable length will be wrong, the plug I am 95% sure is the same but to be honest I have not really taken a lot of notice
Another reason I only sell OEM sensors lol

This O2 is for me, had to get Magna Cam to post up for me as I was at school, we did a run to Mitsubishi and they were stumped, then went to mitsi bits and they confirmed that the sensor is the correct one, the rubber grommet is the right size and there is more than enough length on the cable, so with this being all good, I shall be getting my cat back exhaust tomorrow instead of next Wednesday:)

No this is not the right one. Have not had time to look but I have a feeling the try,ts operates at a different range as well

If it has the same length, amount of wires, connector than its perfect.
I get ones off ebay to suit an eclipse from the US. (for 6g72, 6g74)
The ones i have got (SG905) were compared/tested to a brand new genuine one and got the same results and were just as responsive.
(edit. obviously it might not be perfect but should be good =p . the one i had was perfect)

Go by what it says on the box. If your model isn't listed, don't use it. Time for an eBay "I want my money back" type of claim, me thinks.
