I'm pretty sure they changed from 99 to 2002, but if they're the same I have one laying around.

Thats one of the older sensors in the metal tube thing right? Not the plastic one? I have a plastic one if you have the plastic tube.

if you've got a set of security torx bits, you can do the install yourself.

Or,, you could use a Dremal with a cut off wheel and make a slot in the head of that torx screw.

Then all you need is a flat head screwdriver from then on out.

I picked one up from the junkyard yesterday and put it on. It works great. It was $65 so not bad.
