Default Help with TPMS new sensors

Whas up guys. I’m ordering new tires for my 2002 VETTE and gonna order new tire pressure sensors to install when the tires are being mounted and balanced. I’m ordering from Rock Auto. I believe the sensors I need are the 2nd ones on the list in the picture below. Part # 29179 aluminum. I have the polished aluminum thin spokes on my car. And these seem to look the same from what I can see. My question is are these the correct sensors to get ? I don’t want any headaches of the tire shop not being able to program them or anything. Any help is greatly appreciated. Thx.

Provided your shop has the correct trigger tool and can ready the owners manual, you should be in good shape.

Print out the instructions on how to get to the TPM relearn on the DIC and give it to the installer. The tire installers at my local Sams Club could not figure out how to do it even after I showed him how to get to the TPM relearn on the DIC.
