What is the proper way to solder in a new O2 sensor???

Im going to replace my o2 sensor in my TBE (2nd sensor) with a Bosch 4 wire universal. I have never soldered an o2 before and was just wondering what technique I should use. Do I just twist the ends together and hit them with some solder, or is there a better way? Sorry for the newb solder question!!

you actually could have a hard time soldering these wires, reason being if i remember correctly there is two different types of wire metal. the O2 uses a non coppper wire. i remember this for some reason when i made extensions for my O2 sensor.......

as far as soldering goes, yea twist them getntly together, heat the wire nice and hot and apply the solder.
