O2 Sensor: Upstream... DIY? Inexpensive parts?

<!-- google_ad_section_start -->Hello, my inspection was due October and I couldnt get it due to outrageous tint laws. I finally had time to take it off today and on my way to the inspection center, My engine light comes on. Got the reading, its the Oxygen Sensor, upstream. I really dont know what that is, but nevertheless, I got a price for the part: $250! I dont know if there is a cheap fix i could Do It Myself, or do I have to suck it up and get it done through a mechanic. Ill take any opinion at this point and Doing it myself would be nice, if I can. Thanks!

Its fairly easy to do yourself. Like a 10-15 minute job if you know what you are doing. Just buy an o2 sensor from Kragen or autozone.
