Great device. For those that kept changing pads on track days, these sensor replacements are the perfect device to disable the idiot lights. In fact, unless one is clueless on car maintenance, who needs those wear sensor to tell you when to replace your pads.

Default Elegant solution befitting a Porsche.

Sorry for the delayed response, but sometimes Rennlist isn't top priority.
I received a set of the Ohio Performance ("OP") sensor bypasses and installed them before my last DE. They replaced the bypasses I had made by cutting, stripping, soldering and shrink wrapping used sensor connectors shortly after I picked up my GT4 3 years ago. I did the same for all my prior Porsches beginning with my 993. It's been an easy, fun little project to make the bypasses so I doubt I'd pay for the OP solution. That said they are very well made, much prettier than my homemade bypasses, and obviously easier. So, IF you (1) don't have the time, the ability or the interest in making your own, or (2) want to preserve your take off sensors for reuse if they weren't destroyed during removal, or (3) want a really nice, finished look to everything on your car even parts under the car, I recommend the OP brake sensor bypasses - they check all the boxes, assuming the pricing is reasonable.

Here's one of my bypasses next to the OP unit:



You should be able to figure out which is OP's

Thats great! We are in the process of adjusting some of the areas of the initial design due to some testers reporting the delete a little tight for the for the factory clamp. Once I test this out I will make a DIY for those interested in doing it themselves (its been a busy October with the fam) All others we can help out!

Thanks again.

Mike

If you still need someone to test I'm more than happy to do so. Thanks!

Sorry been busy at work so the hobby had to take a back seat! Ok the feedback from the testers was a huge help for us. We are trying to simplify the process so #1 the sensor can be more easily plugged in and covered with the factory cover, and #2 make it easier for the community to do it for themselves. So here is where we are at. Just trying to find an easier way to pull the pin. More updates soon (and we may need more testers from the air cooled crew)
