Where to purchase TPMS sensors

Hey everyone,

I bought my 2003 sl500 that had wheels without tpms sensors and the tpms error is getting really annoying to me. Anywhere know where I could shop to find a good deal? I'm hoping to get them under $100 each. Thanks

When I purchased them earlier this year they were $89.56 each with free delivery.
Product number for my 03' was 16 RDE004

I spent a lot of time researching and pricing. If your car is a US model this is probably your sensor.
Thanks

I just ordered mine from TireRack. 88 bucks + 8 buck valve + minimal shipping. Give them an email/call with VIN handy to be sure you get right part!

RE: TPMS Sensors

+1 for Tire Rack. I am in the midst of doing a new wheel/tire set, and just received a full TPMS set from Tire Rack yesterday. My 05 also has the 315 MH sensors, same as your 03. They are in fact the OEM Beru sensors from Germany just as the car was delivered with new. Doesn't get any better or easier than that.

www.orange-electronic.com/ has many sensors for OEM replacement at about a third of a new OEM unit. Give them a shot before you buy. I've had a set on my Trailblazer for just over 6 months now and love them. My SL did not come with tire pressure monitoring. I can buy the orange system for $139 and have them installed for free when replacing tires at Discount Tire. OR pay them $15/tire to install them. Looks like my SL is going to get some sneaker testers in the New Year.

They had mine in stock, was it complete? Did you have to get the valve kit also?
