thanks Rich, I'm not sure what cars use these, I need it for my LC1 wideband (knackered the sensor today)
I think it is mainly volkswagen / volvo who use this sensor

http://www.forparts.com/BoswidebandO2app.htm
the list above implies this anyway.
I think the bosch part number I require is
bosch 0 258 007 057

I ran the engine without the sensor powered up. Apparently this kills them pretty quickly

Thanks people plenty of places to call. I guess when these sensors are fitted to cars by the manufacturer they get powered on with the ignition so no
chance of doing what I did.
Oh well, expensive mistake, I'll know better next time........

Bill was the cheapest ordered from him this evening.
from the LC-1 manual
"When installed in the exhaust, the oxygen sensor MUST be connected and operating with the LC-1 whenever the car is running. An un-powered
oxygen sensor will be quickly damaged when exposed to hot exhaust gases."
I found out the hard way, now I'm £45 worse off.
