Has anyone seen 'black Friday' priced height sensors on their travels recently.
I have to get hold of 1 front and 1 rear, the prices are just a hilarious £65 quid each,
And that's half my kids christmas PlayStation 4 cost.

Yes I know, but if I don't get them one my missus will slash my tyres.

Dunlop OEM from Island are £57.60. Good job you didn't look at Rimmers for them. You really would be upset.

Island seems to be the best place.

That would be about £57.60 then?

Try swapping them over. They only use half the potentiometer, so the other half should be fine. A lot of people have said this isn't worth the effort, but I've done it to get myself out of trouble and it works fine.....and still working months later. At least it will get you past Christmas, you can get the Playstation........ and still have a set of usable tyres!

Swapping the front ones over several months ago worked a treat.
Couple of days ago, While i was angle grinding the rear ones off to swap them, the bolt holes snapped off, so rear is swapped but held on with cable ties....and now started sending intermittent readings..
for the location these sensors are in, they haven't done bad for a 1998 180k motor...
Maybe I will just give the kids an orange and a bag of nuts for christmas ��
