88's didn't have a heated O2 sensor, just a standard 1 wire O2 sensor. Bosch is usually a good O2 sensor to use.

oh yeah i know sorry i wasnt very clear . looking to fit a heated one instead of non heated. but obviously want to make sure i get the right readings and the computer sees it. i might go for a universal one and see what happens, its like a third of the price my local parts place wants for oem.

It's not as simple as just plugging one in. A quick search pulled up these plus a bunch of others:
