2002 tpms sensors
New tires on the way and want to get some new TPMS sensors as they weren’t working when I picked up the car.
anyone have a recommendation on a part number from rock auto? This is for a 2002. Looks like there are many shrader part numbers to choose from and I have no idea the differences between them.

Looks like I actually ordered a different model:
More Information for SCHRADER 29179
Discount tire didn't seem to know how to get them to work but everything I read seems to suggest I only need to use a magnet for the relearn process. The problem is I have the replica c7 z06 wheels and there is not much room to put a round magnet around the stem. Any other suggestions to get the magnet process to work in limited space?

Hm - could be user error. I’ll keep trying. I get it into learn front L tire and then hold the damn thing near the sensor but against the tire. Wondering if the wheels are making it difficult.
Is there any other option?

I had to point it right at the valve stem, holding the button down continuously until the horn sounded.
