where to buy an air-fuel sensor?

Hey guys, the check engine light on my 02 V6 fired up the same damned month that it's due for inspection. I got the code for bank1, sensor1 air-fuel mixture failure. Now, the places like napa and autozone list everything for this spot on the car as O2 sensor, so i'm not going that route (i know there's a difference between the parts). And the local stealership wants over $230 for an A/F sensor. My local dealer is the only toyota place for 70 miles in any direction so they just charge whatever they feel you can pay. Can anyone tell me if they know of a good online source for OEM parts?

Thanks

rockauto.com, look for Denso if you want OEM. For these models I don't think you have a choice even in a different box.

Oxygen sensor has many different types. People can call engine sludge "oil gel" and it's still the same thing. Sensors can be unheated thimble, heated thimble, planar, wide-band, and titania.

I actually cross check with manufacturer's online catalogs. Yes, they all have mistakes, including Toyota, unfortunately. But so far so good.
