Default Problem about my O2 Heated Sensor (Air fuel ratio sensor)

My 03 Highlander V6 2WD just got the engine check, I went to the shop to check and they told me I have to change that heated O2 sensor after catalytic (someone call air fuel ratio sensor).
I took that sensor out and get this number: 89465-48010, the brand name is Denso. I dont want to change it by the dealer cause it's so expensive.
My question is: Can I use the Bosch 15739 Oxygen Sensor? Will it work with my car? And how about its quality? Will it last long and perform well like the original one?
Also, Is it the quality of the Universal and the OE one the same? Because the universal doesn't have the conector, but I know how to wire it with my old conector.
Thanks!

If I were you, I would stick with a Denso sensor. The Bosch will work with your car (though I'm not sure of model numbers) but they seem to be lower quality. You should be able to buy a denso online somewhere like sparkplugs.com and get it pretty cheap. They can be a pain to replace if they're rusted in tight, be ready for that.

The pre-wired or the ones with an end already crimped on are the same. I doubt you'll have a problem there, it's only four wires. Keep it water tight!

So the Denso seem like better than the Bosch, but how come the Bosch is more expensive. Luckily, I already openned it without any problems, I will keep it water tight. Thanks for your help!
