Default TPMS sensors for winter wheels

Piecing together my winter wheel/tire package for my '08 GTS and I'm looking for a source for (inexpensive) tire pressure sensors for my wheels.

I searched the forum, but didn't come up with anything.

Are there any good dealers or other sources online for the sensors?

Thanks!

I'm shopping for one for my spare. My dealer wanted +$87 and $55 to install. SunCoast has them for $67 and change plus shipping. I sent a request to Sunset, but haven't heard back yet.

Does anyone know if the Toureg and Cayenne sensors are the same?

The transmitters apparently broadcast on different frequencies - even within the Cayenne brand. When I purchased one from Sunset, they needed to know my VIN so that they could send me one with the correct broadcast frequency.

FWIW, it's a VW labeled part.
