Default Wide band sensor location?

Where is the best place to mount a wide band sensor? I have my rear O2 sensors turned off, I'm thinking for convenience sake, driver's side rear O2 is best. What would be better for diagnostic and monitoring procedures?

Pre-cat if possible, for the most accurate readings.

Mine is located after the cat, which can potentially skew the readings a bit. However, the data it's giving me seems dead on. Response time will also be better the closer it is to the engine.

I'm wondering how deep the bung should be mounted. My sensor barely sticks out past the bung. Muffler shop want so cut a hole and essentially sit the bung on top of the hole, and weld around the seems.

I wonder if the bung needs to get recessed a little in side the hole - like half of the bung sticking out of the pipe and half the bung below the surface of the pipe.
