First things first, why do you need them and which ones do you need?

There are 3 sensors on a UK car and 2 on an MR-S. Do you know which 2 you need?

There is advice already on here and there will be more specific to your situation, as you can see it has already started
Importantly, the eBay specials are not what you need.
Denso are original equipment, I have used NGK, both reputable manufacturers
I understand that it is best to use branded items in this case.
But as above first determine what is actually your situation.

First thanks for your help, may be I should have explained better, I'm thinking of buying a 2 advertised on the forum but it needs two 02 sensors, they are the ones attached to the exhaust manifold (pre cat).
Hope this is of more help.
I have since found out more in formation on the forum, as I said very new and still finding my way around.

No worries, personally I would be careful buying a car that needed two O2 sensors from the start.
If it's just heater circuit faults then fine, if the sensors have other faults I would want to know the history of the car more.
