Default Should I buy this?

My 'Check Engine Light' will NOT go away and it's ticking me off. I think it's the High Flow Cats. Should I buy 18" O2 sensor extensions that I saw on eBay? I have to go for inspection soon. Thanks!

No I didn't and to be perfectly honest,...I had no clue that I could do that. Could you walk me through it? I appreciate your help.

Put a piece of black electrical tape over it, BOOM! Fixed like a boss!

You can get a tune that will turn off O2 sensors.

as i recall as you are loading your tune you have the ability to scroll through and make changes along the way or you could ask your tune provider to give you a new one with o2 delete. if you have bama tune for life you're golden..

I don't recall the O2's being user settable. I thought that had to be written into the tune.
