Smartire *SENSOR* installation?
I searched for Smartire install and got lots of hits on installing the receivers, but very little on the sensor install.
Of course Smartire says you must have it done by an authorized tire dealer, which would be no big deal - except that company "D" is the one I've used for years with excellent results (not an authorized dealer), vs company "O" who screwed me over once (authorized dealer).
Smartire's web site allows download of the owner's manual, which shows the installation method.
This doesn't look like rocket science - has anyone had good or bad experience with Smartire sensor installation by someone other than an "authorized" dealer?

the sensors are very very easy to install
the hardest part probably to cut the mounting wire, gotta have the right tool to cut off the extra.
I think you can ask the (non authorized dealer) and see if they're willing to install it for you.

<center><img src="http://www.tirerack.com/tires/images/accessories/smartire_2nd_gen_bigger.jpg"></center><p>Installation is simply a matter of the sensors being strapped to the inside of the wheel prior to haveing the tire mounted up. Any shop who mounts & balances can install the sensors, no to worry.
