Default Local Shops and TPMS Bands?

Has anyone found any local shops that stock 18" bands? I've tried a few places around town but haven't had any luck.

American Muscle sells them. Get your order in quick and you'll probably get the Weds or Thurs.

I ordered mine from American Muscle, but it really looks like something I could have found at Home Depot in the plumbing department.

+1
The aftermarket ones are just glorified
StainlessSteelworm clamps available
for much less than $17 each.
But I guess ease ofaquiring would
warrant such a price. Afterall, Time is $$.

I just ordered from American muscle about 5 minutes ago, I figure I waited this long whats another 2 days.

It's the bracket kitpart that throws me off, Universal Mustang TPMS Sensor Mounting Band and Bracket Kit. I just hope one size fits all. Description wasn't clear.

My understanding is that you can use the old brackets as well if you want. The reason for new ones is that you can leave the old straps and brackets on the old wheels without cutting them off. You have to cut the band to get the bracket off. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong.

Also, I hope you didn't forget the MF rebate!
