You will need to do this quite tight to fool them into thinking there is enough pressure being applied. Simply throw them in the glove box, trunk, etc.




The other method takes longer to fabricate, but is easier to regulate the proper pressure. Basically, you make a pipe bomb for the sensors.

You will need:

12" X 3" PVC pipe
2 X 3" PVC end caps
PVC pipe glue
3M double side tape (foam type)
I believe it is a 3/8 in drill bit and rill

Glue one end cap to the pipe.
Using foam tape, attach 3 sensors inside the tube (taped so they will not rattle around).
Drill hole in other end cap.
Insert last sensor inthe the hole in the end cap. Reattach hardware so it is sealed.
Glue end cap onto pipe.
Let dry over night.

Inflate to proper amount and hide in trunk.

I have heard that those dont work on the X.
