that's not where it is suppose to go
thats more of a spot for like a wideband o2 sensor

the 2nd o2 sensor is suppose to go in the catalytic converter, like i've told you before. to not throw a CEL, you have to convert to EX exhaust which includes EX exhaust, header (which you have), and the cat.
is your catback aftermarket or just the muffler?

yea that works

you also need an o2 extension wire harness (not that expensive).

Yea, just make sure the wires you extend are not the wires on the O2 sensor. Extend the wires that are on the engine harness.

i've never heard that before
i bought one for $50, but i'm sure since you're OBD2 it will be more expensive

The cost of the o2 sensor also depends on what trim 6th generation.
