Default Dorman TPMS Sensors

Are the Dorman brand TPMS sensors any good? I see them online (for my 2004) for $39.99 each, compared to $73.99 for the others.

I have had good experiences with the Dorman line over the years. I'm currently using one of their brake master cylinders. Quality is good.

I would just be certain to get the year-specific part number and application information correct though so you get the correct ones.

I currently have all four tires with Dormans and can't say that their great quality. I've had them for only a year and only 1 is still working. I'm still in the process of trouble shooting since the issue came up last week. But I would suggest taking caution. I'll post back up here what the real issue is when i find it.

Check out Schrader Bridgeport. They are the OEM supplier. Different years are different prices, but for my '99 they are p/n 28006@$81.60 each. Less than half the dealer list.
