Default Another puzzeling find????

I bought my 92 vert almost 5 years ago and replaced the sawblades shortly after. Today, I was putting on new Kumho race tires on the sawblades and as we were taking off the old gator backs, I think the originals, we found air pressure sensors on both rims! My Vette didn't have the low pressure indicator option. What do you think? Did the General slap them on by mistake? Wierd

We took them off and maybe they might be worth something to who ever has this option.

These were the original sawblades that came with the 92 Vette. The previous owner says they were the original wheels.

Low tire pressure sensor systems were an option as far back as at least 1990. My 90 sawblades had them. The low tire pressure light is in the top right hand corner of the driver information center.
