Cannot find or use a thin wall crows foot O2 sensor socket to access bank one O2 sensor on a 2012 Nissan Maxima due to firewall clearance issue.

Standard O2 sensor sockets are too bulky to fit in tight spaces like near a firewall; no readily available thin wall crows foot socket for this specific application.
