Default Bartec trackside TPMS tool

So.........My auto shop didn't program my new wheels correctly, and
they had to borrow a tool to do it! I'll just buy a tool and do it myself!
Wrong! Calling Bartec listed distributors went nowhere. They had no idea what I was talking about. Called Bartec. They don't sell directly!
Said they would have distributor call me. No call. So I call a local
distributor again(who didn't know he was a distributor!) and asked him
to call Bartec to try and order a tool. I should know tomorrow if he
was suscessful. I would have thought that a Corvette parts place
(like corvette store) would have started selling there tools by now.

That was the intro price that is long gone.

The current price is $199.99 plus about $20 shipping.

I bought mine back in november for around $100 also.
I contacted the owner and he got it done for me. I told him he would make a killing if he made them available on line- what can ya do?....
Anyway give him a call.
Larry Donnely Jr. - 440-238-6232 ext. #2 , and tell him you got his number from this forum, I must have sent him a dozen people by now.
Good Luck!
