They did not charge us for the new sensors as we had paid for the other sensors.

My Porsche Indie used Porsche sensors in my boxster. I've heard that "Huf" is a good brand and the OEM for Porsche and work well. But I've also heard about folks having problems with aftermarket. The price tag for the Porsche parts stung, but if this batch lasts 18 years (or even 10) like the original set, it's not that big an expense.

It's great to be able to see the pressure on all 4 tires in real time any time the car is running. If I switched to an older car, I'd want a similar system if I could find a good one.
