Default O2 front sensor, square or flat

I spliced the rear O2s into the front connector and now the car seems a little off the last few weeks. I did solder and heat shrink them but I guess it failed. Im gonna get new O2s and extensions but the car is my dads and I cannot remember if it was the square or flat connector for the front sensors. I want to get them on order and did a search but coudnt find what I was looking for.

There are off the shelf adapters made for exactly that purpose....no need to butcher your wiring.

I didnt touch the wiring on the ecm side, it was the O2 sensor wiring I butchered. That still didnt answer my question though. I need to know if it is flat or square so I know which ones to order. They make both, and I dont have the car within 50 miles of me.

I believe the fronts are flat connectors.

It is a 2002. I though it was flat, but didnt want to order them without knowing for sure.

Fronts and an '02 car are flat. We have the pair for $40.
