Nope. Wonder if there is an aftermarket system though?

Can't you get one off another vectra or a Saab 93? Some 93 models have em

Interesting .. but I instantly have 3 questions I can't find the answer to on that site ...

1. Does the fitting charge of £50 include re-balancing all 4 wheels ??

2. What does the sensor weigh ?? It must need balance weights fitted diametricaly opposite it, but the idea of 2 lumps of weight acting like a pair of dumbells on my wheels is of concern to me.

3. How long do the batteries last ?? As they are "transmitting" all the time they must run out, and the expense of having to remove the tyres, replace the batteries, replace the tyres and rebalance would have to be added in to the equation.
