Question Best Place To Buy ST170 Lambda Sensors ?

Hi all ive got 2x lambda faults on my car bank 1 sensor 1 and bank 2 sensor 2 as the cars been run with the imrc not working it would of been running ritch so ive been shopping about to get the best price for the lambdas my local ford dealer wanted

£85.56 Front

£78.43 Rear

so after having a quick look online

ive found some genuine bosch ones at

£49.78 Front

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

£56.89 Rear

http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.d...=STRK:MEWAX:IT

So its already down a fair bit

Pair From Ford £163.99

Pair Of Genuine Bosch £106.67 + p&p £5.90

So £112.57 To My Door so £51.42 cheaper sounds good

Just wonderd if its worth removeing the old ones and cleaning them before i buy new ones im not well up on lambda sensors but have been told to avoid the cheap universal ones where you cut your own plug off and refit them a few times .

ive read a few times the st170 lambdas are prone to going faulty anyone got any better ideas is it worth cleaning them first ?
