New "heated" O2's instead of the old style??

[Js5ohLX]

I have two o2's from a new taurus, anyone know if they could be wired to function, or would they not work at all? I'm thinking you could eliminate the heater and just wire them to the old plugs and be good to go? What do you guys think?

Mustangs from 86-up have had heated O2's. I would think that all Ford products have used heated O2's and the difference is just the plug design and how many wires to do the same job. O2's are calibrated for the factory pipe length to the sensor to get a correct reading.
