Default Oxygen sensor replacement

I just got my new O2 sensor from GMPartsDirect.com, but there'* a little problem I've run into. They new sensor'* wiring harness is the opposite connector as the old one'*. I found the part number in the techinfo article, and that'* the one I got. Why is the connector wrong?

Oh yeah. The car is a 97 SE. I keep forgetting to put that in a sig.

What'* the part number on the package? This is really wierd. Those numbers came right out of the book, and they list O2 sensor when you look them up. I've never heard of this happening! It would be cool to have someone else with a 97 for a comparison!

Doc, can you check your car? Pull the connector apart, and tell us which connector goes where (pins or sockets to harness or O2 sensor). Anyone else whith a 97, feel free to jump in! Boognish, email gmpartsdirect.com and get confirmation from them just in case my book is wrong.

My car isn't here right now so I can't check it, but I just replaced the front O2 from GM Parts Direct about a month ago. The part number I got is: 25312203. :?: :?:

How many wires do each of you have on your sensor?

If I remember correctly, there were three on mine. Might possibly have been four though. I'll check when it gets home.

Al, while we're trying to sort this out, can you jump in here? I just crosschecked my book, and it'* identical to what I posted in Techinfo. Need to know if my book is wrong!
