You may do well to get an offset wrench to get in there.
Often if a sensor was installed previously without using anti-seize compound you will not get it out unless the pipe is heated using an oxy-acetylene torch. If that has happened and you don't use heat, you will destroy the sensor or the threads in the pipe before you get it out.

Where's the O2 sensor on an 03 Thunderbird the upstream

An upstream O2 sensor (on any vehicle) will be located somewhere on the exhaust system in front of the catalytic converter- between the exhaust manifold and the cat itself.

You may have to crawl underneath your vehicle with a flashlight and simply trace the exhaust system from cat to engine. The O2 sensor is screwed in somewhere -you'll see the connecting wires.

I put a Cal emissions o2 sensor in my 99 Jeep Grand Cherokee, which after the fact I saw it was I fed emissions Jeep. Would I still c signs of bad o2 sensor

The post-cat O2 (emissions) sensor reports the exhaust gas condition to the engine management system and it is the pre-cat O2 sensor that closes the loop in the closed loop emission control system.

If the post-cat O2 sensor is reporting bad emissions it is because the pre-cat sensor might be faulty or the engine management system is failing to control fuelling because, perhaps, the injectors are dribbling, the spray patterns are bad, the fuel pressures are wrong or another sensor is sending incorrect information to the system.
It is also possible the CAT is defective or the exhaust or intake is strangled, etc...

2003 chevy avalancheCode p0420 how to fix this

Code 420 is for a possible problem with the catalytic converter. The computer uses data from the front and rear O2 sensor to monitor cat activity. The sensors are telling the computer the cat is not performing correctly.
The problem could be the cat or something else such as the fuel system.

The 02 sensor is not working

there are 4 o2 sensors. one on each bank after the cat. converters, one before the muffler and one on the muffler.

chances are it one of the o2 sensors by the cat converters.

check you Mass Air Sensor and replace spark plugs, because there is probably something simple that wrecked your o2 sensor in the first place and it will help your vehicle run and last longer. It could be more complicated, like a vacuum leak cuz honda civics are known to have head gaskets replaced.

But i guess first you need to figure out which o2 sensor it is.

Nissan fronteir codes are P0420, P0430 what has failed

po420 and430 is telling that the catalyst converters are no good both, most of the time bad o2 sensors maake computer think cat is no good, the way it tests is if o2 sensor reading before cat is about the same as the one after cat computer asumes cat is not bruning exhaust good , iwould replace o2 sensors reset check engine light and go from there, that might be the problem,if you were to replace cat o2s should be done at that time,so do o2s first,good luck.

2002 Honda CR-V O2 sensor location

The O2 sensor is before the cat, the cat performance monitor (which looks like an O2 sensor) is after the cat.

Installing 02 sensors

"Up-stream" means before the catalytic converters and are probably in the header pipe(s). The "down-stream" O2 sensors are behind the cats in the exhaust system, usually just behind them. Not the expert here on this particular car but there are probably 4 of these sensors. BMW exhaust systems are very tight on space, be careful tackling this job.
