No problem at all. All overseas shipment are provided with relevant documentation to assist you with custom clearance.
Are all your products easy to install.
Yes all our products are easy to install. If you purchased a product from the TPMS category on the home page these can be installed by yourself and take about 5 minutes to do. But if you purchased from TPMS installation then you will need a professional tyre fitter. These come with a sensor that is attached to the valve. All four tyres have to have these valves replace the old ones. The whole process will take around 1 hour to complete. The process is almost the same as putting on a new tyre so wheel balancing is essential.
