Bought a new O2 sensor today and socket and can't get the connector apart whats the trick........HELP

 

Replaced post cat O2 sensor this morning about a 30 minute job special socket wouldn;t work went back to autozone and got my $9.99 back wasn't enought room with ratchet had to use 7/8 inch open in wrench. Started up no more "Service Soon Light" about a 30 minute job.....used the Bosch Sensor $52.99 at auto zone nightmare over......

 

Replace power antenna today also ended up taking 3 hours....lol cost $94 at guzman pontiac 2 miles from my house list for $176.13 but since they are ebay store printed ebay listing and they dropped the shipping......Good day..........My corvette shop wanted to replace both sensors drivers side for around $250 and charge $140 for antenna and $80 labor to install so 140+80=220 and the $250 makes $470 total for both cost me around $156 not the money just the point of its not all that hard to do......2nd time hopefuly never would take much less time.........
