FW: Generic o2 sensor Bosch. -what about neihoff?

[Livolsi, Stephane]

Local FLAPS (in Canada) carries Neihoff (sp?) brand.  I called today and the
89 Taurus 3 ltr 02 sensor costs $57.33 Canadian and they have it in stock!

Now, the big question, how does Neihoff compare in quality?  Anybody have
some input?  I've heard of them, and maybe even used a distributor rotor in
the past.....  At least is sounds German....:)
