Tire pressure/temp monitor install

[LasVegas]

Here's my latest bell/whistle. FYI the feds have mandated that starting late '06 ALL vehicles have to be equipped with TPMs (tire pressure monitors). So I researched the various products available. I choose the Smartire because it's the only one that has a remote display you can integrate into the dash or console. The inside install is easy, about 3 hours taking your time and being careful cutting the hole. For those of you that pull trailers, boats, etc. you can add the transmitters there & it reads right on the display in your H2. Very nice & all wireless. Unless you have tire equipment you'll have to take it to a tire shop to install the transmitters/bands in the tires & have them balanced. Just so happens I was due for a rotate & balance so they're doing it all for me tomorrow. Cheapest place to buy is Vulcan Tire in Utah. $199 complete plus $45 if you want the built in remote display. Here's their link Vulcan This only pulls 125 mamp (that's milliamps) so you can connect to any existing switched circuit. I just used the sunroof power but you could use the garage door transmitter or any other convenient power source.
