it screws right in
BUT
it WILL turn on the service light (check engine)
to turn it off you have trick the o2 sensor by modifying the hole...
try this:
take the old hole and weld it on top of the new one this will raise the sensor so it will still read volume but not as much as too alert the computer of a modification....
call me crazy but this works on any car....

anti fowler
yes yes, i tried this fix and it worked for me. im sure its working for retro after he corrected the location of where he used his fowlers the first time. what u do is go to auto zone and ask the peoples for a set of 18 mm spark plug fowlers. then u gotta get a 1/2 drill bit and drill the heck out of one of them. now combine em together. stick the o2 sensor in it and place em like normal in ur downpipe. it should work.
