Default Tpms

Any of you guys ordered sensors from here? For $35/ea it seems like a pretty good price (best I've seen anyways)

How much is to get the TPMS sensors activated from the dealer?

Depends on the dealer... I've seen anywhere from $0 to $150 mentioned by people over the years.


Realistically, if you have the sensor numbers, it takes them about 5 minutes to do. If you're someone who gets all their work done there including paying for every "X miles" service they might do it free. Or they might charge 1/2 an hour or an hour of labor. Just depends.

I got a oewheels set for my es350 for my winter rims; installer programmed them (gave him the Tech notes). note that they don't come with the mounting hardware (the nut thing that holds it on the rim).

On the web site they have what Lexus's the listed TPMS are compatible with..
