[quote=""phill""]you can't just replace the batteries.

You need to replace the whole sensor in the wheel

you might be able to find them cheaper, but basically the above link is what you need.

when i was looking at those i thought the price for per sensor not a set. would they be as good as the OEM ones? i need to get three of mine replaced but if these are any good than might as well do whole set. anyone tried these?
