These videos should give you an idea of how much effort is needed to get to the o2 sensor connector under the carpet:

Question for all my JoeZ quad tip friends out there: I got the exhaust installed about a week and a half ago and I'm loving it so far. Only issue is that when I go over bumps, I can hear the exhuast make a thunk on the drivers side. It could be happening on the passenger side as well, but I may just not be able to hear it. My guess is that it's either the tips hitting the bumper, or the tips hitting the mount where the stock tops bolt to the bumper. Anyone else experienced this? Did you solve it somehow?

Here's 3 pictures. One of the mount that I assume is making the noise, and then a picture of both hangers. This is on the driver's side

Didn't realize this little mount was just a plastic piece. Anyway, found out what I think is actually making the sound now. Not sure what part this is, but I'm almost positive it bumps this on the drivers side, has much more clearance on passenger side. My limited knowledge has me guessing that it's part of the subframe bushing mount?

That's what I did, wouldn't recommend it because it was real tough getting the angle and length right (still didn't come out 100% right in the end) but it was good enough for me. I'm also running a varex exhaust system for the sake of not having drone issues after I put in PPE headers hopefully soon. Here's a pic for reference. I purposely left the tips a little longer out the back to have a more aggressive look after I put on my rear diffuser.
