C5 Owners Inside

My dad is looking at buying chrome rims for his 1999 C5 and the rims he is looking at doesnt come with the wheel sensor. How hard is it to switch the sensors from the stock rims to the new ones? How do they attach. Any help would be appreciated. He is planning on buying them Saturday, so hopefully someone can help out before then.

Wheel sensors are a piece of cake to change. They will have to be reset with a large magnet though. Im Curious as to what wheels he is getting..

He was looking at a set of chrome OEM 99 C5 wheels that dont have the sensors on them. How do the sensor hook on? Thanks for the help.

The sensors go in by the valve core if i remember correctly. I have the stock 02 polished wheels off my car for sale if he would be interested. Check my sig for pics

Do they snap into place, slide into place? Also, we need to swipe a magnet by it to reset it?

We are getting a good deal on these rims, so we wanna make sure they are usuable.
