Decat sensors

I've been looking into getting a decat for my car and notice the majority of ones on the market only come with bungs for the 02 sensor.
Now im aware that when you fit a decat you do not need to have the CAT heat sensor (bottom sensor in the standard CAT if im correct) fitted. If this is the case what do people actually do with this "spare sensor"????

Would i just tie it off somewhere in the engine bay? Cut the cable off alltogother? Short it out somehow??

Any thoughts? cheers

Yeah it just unplugs mate from the loom and thats that. The old heat sensor normaly just stays in the original CAT no need to remove it as its really not needed with the decat..

you only need the lambda/ 02 sensor..

the other 1 is a cat temp sensor.. which you dont need as you will have no cat :)
