Default Tire Pressure Sensor Question

I recently bought a Tire Pressure Sensor for my 98 Coupe for the front left side from local dealer who ordered it for me. I figure with a 8-9 year life span they are all at the end of their life but the left front was the first to go. I noticed on the back of the new one a small clock face with an arrow pointing to the number 7...please tell me I didn't buy one that was made 10 years ago....?

Perhaps that number 7 means 2007.

I don't know what the 7 means but usually they cost way more at a dealership than at www.gmpartshouse.com

The arrow is pointing to the month. Look on the left and right side of the arrow and you will see two numbers, i.e., 0 (arrow) 7. That denotes the year

I think I figured it out..The arrow points to a 7 (July) ..the number to the left of the arrow is a 0 and to the right a 6....Guessing that means it was manufactured in July of 2006...
