Typically there is one located in each of the exhaust manifolds and one located after the catalytic converter, simply follow the exhaust manifold to the exhaust pipe until you find them.The O2 sensors are not cheap as parts. Typically running $150 each. They aren't hard to replace if they haven't siezed in the exhaust manifold.
Why? Check engine light? Someone tell you need all of them? If so find another place to take it too. All O2's sensors hardly ever fail at the same time.
They are all located on the exhaust manifolds and also further down on the exhaust pipe after the catalytic converter. They look like spark plugs with wires coming out of the end.
The expense is not in the labor, the parts are where the money is. If you use anything but dealer parts you will be wasting your money.
Are you sure the O2 sensors need replacement? If so then follow the exhaust pipe to the sensors. They are a spark plug like devise screwed into the exhaust pipe ahead of the catalytic converter. First unplug the electrical connection then unscrew the O2 sensor. sometimes you need a special socket to do this, but unless badly corroded they will come out as Long as you can get a box end wrench over the wire. Be sure to use the special lube on the replacement part or if already applied, do not wipe off.
The part is expensive, about $50 each from a national auto parts store.
