Default Relocation oil sensor number

Anyone know where i can buy the replacement sensor for the relocation kit. The number on the sensor is 12877837 and it looks like it was manufactured in Mexico. Thanks.

That's a GM part number.

I'd just get whatever lifetime warranty sensor the parts store has. They're all overseas junk now, might as well get the warrantied junk.

Personally, I always try to stay with many OEM replacement parts. THIS....IS NOT one of them. I've had better luck with parts store replacements. Currently running a cheapo O'Reilly sender, been in as long, or longer, than any OEM sender ever was. I've owned my C5 since '03, so I've changed my share!!

If your relocation kit uses a 1/4 in NPT thread, this one will work. It is listed for a buick, but fits and work great
