Default O2 Sensor

I need to replace an O2 sensor in a 2001 A-6 2.8L. I can get the part, just need to know if anyone has the best method to replace it and where it is located.

Depends on which of the four oxygen sensors you are replacing.

This isn't my car. The dealer told her that she had a bad O2 sensor. I'm a 5000/200 man myself.

Do I just need to go through trial and error?
