    why are they not plugged in? your car will be overfuelling which can cause more problems over time.

    You have a choice.
    A. Fit a remote filter kit
    b.have a new lamba boss welded in a position that will accept the sensor and fit a bolt in the old hole.
    Will then need to sleeve the 2nd sensor

    C.fit the correct manifold.

    Remote filter is what is used on a mk2 when fitting a four branch manifold.
    Also known as a remote filter.
    The sensor after the 1st cat should be sleeved

    you can fit a mk1 ,metal oil filter in place of the plastic mk1 one. search for the guide.
    sleeve the second lambda
