No... the harness connectors are different on the pre-cat and after-cat sensors.

If I splice everything together the actual sensor is the same right? There is some AC DELCO ones on Ebay and they say "work for front and rear" , comes with wire splice kit.....or should I just do it right and buy harnessed ones? Thanks ---

Splicing isn't the best way to treat an O2 sensor. They use stainless steel wires. The sensor output is in millivolts..... a small bit of corrosion or a sloppy splice and your whole system is fubar.
