Default Buying from rockauto - Temp sensors

Hey people,
I'm about to order a couple of temp sensors from rockauto and it occurred to me that it's possible that the ones they have listed may not even be perfect replacements.

The jag ones are expensive and I'm sure another one that meets the specs will be fine.

Buy what one to get?! There's so many.

Do we know of an aftermarket one that has been proven as a good replacement?

There is only one coolant temp sensor on the car. All the temp sensor listed on rockauto has the wrong connector. I got my sensor at my local autopart store, the part # they had in their database was same as rockauto which all had the wrong connector. I gave them the OEM part # they were able to crossreference and find me the right sensor.

I got my original jaguar one in the jaguar packaging from eBay for $16 with free shipping.
