The error code that was thrown by my ECU is the P2A00, which is sensor 1 bank 1 error. So that's a $200 hurdle.
Does anyone have any other recommendations? My father is considering trying to pull off the side fender to get a short wrench directly on the bolt. not sure how that will work, gonna try all day Monday. Considering drilling out the bolt from the back just to get them off.
thanks,

I couldn't get my passenger bolt off after over a week of trying so I drove it to a muffler shop and had them do it. They had snap-on tools that were apparently a lot better than mine. I brought my extensions just in case they didn't have enough to get to it. His swivel socket worked better than mine because it stayed straight as you guided it down to the bolt, where mine fell at a 90 degree angle and I couldn't get it on the bolt. He put a pipe on his rachet and put a lot of force on it and it broke the head off the bolt. I ask what I owed him and he said don't worry about it. I gave him a 20 and thanked the hell out of him, drove it home and finished the install. If I remember right he used 3/8" everything.
