Not exactly sure how many the '96 has. All the oxygen sensors are located on the exaust. Some years have them just between the engine and the catalytic converter. Other years have them there in addition to another one behind the catalytic converter. They are screwed into the exhaust connected with connectors. Just unplug connector and unscrew them. Then replace. Some of them are really cranked on there though. Just remember DO NOT touch the tip or get anything on the tip of the new O2 sensors.
