Default o2 Sensor help

I just got a set of Long Tubes and evidentially need o2 sensor extents. Can someone tell me which I need: Flat or Square?



1998 C5 Coupe



Thanks guys.

You only need to install the front o2 sensors as you can tune out the rears or use o2 simulators.
I used my rear sensors in the front along with the rear wires, but I needed an adapter that went from square to flat plugs.

I really wanted to keep the rears in the rear and the fronts in the fronts but don't know what type of connector ext. I should buy for the front.

If you want to keep front and rear o2's you will need extensions for both.
Square for the rear and Flat for the front.

bit confused as to why I would need them for the rear??? The rears are in the same spot as stock. The front is moved lower than stock. At any rate flat answers my question.
