im done. i got it changed all good.

i noticed the same reason to do it in that order too...because it twists up the wire.

thats an interesting tidbit about the o2 sensors being self heated...and i did have the keys not on...they were in the cup holder in the console. good thing.

i didnt bother unhooking my battery though.

my dad also purchased the o2 sensor tool from bavauto so that made things easier...although that beast was in there tight...i had to get a rubber hammer and knock the socket wrench a few times to get it unstuck.

but overall, all went well.

it was kinda tough because i had no jack stands ... so i ended up making a really ghetto contraption out of 2x4's and some 2" steel tubing i had in the garage...probably unsafe but luckily the car didnt crush me.
