I wouldn't go aftermarket. If you can't afford a new converter, get a used one from Erie Vovo: click on the ad at the top of the page.

I replaced all four o2 sensors on my '99 S80 T6 with Bosch direct fit replacement sensors that I bought from Amazon.com. The right ones to buy are Bosch 17036 pre-cat, and Bosch 16198 post-cat. I'm assuming that a Canadian model will use the same sensors as the US model.

Don't buy the "Universal" type and try and splice it in. It's difficult enough threading the wires around the bottom of the engine and getting the plugs apart without damaging them.
