Thanks for the tip. The extensions at Bavarian Motorsports are only 10
bucks, not 20 (Part # : Z327). The same, or at leat a very similar extension
is available from Amazon for $7 (
http://www.amazon.com/Accu-Gage-Accu-gage-Chek-A-Spare/dp/B0006O2S8M )
Exactly what I want. I am going to order several (pulling the damn cover off
the RAV4 Spares is a pain too!).

Hi,

Thanks for the tip. I ordered the item from Amazon.com. The gauge is
$7.00, and the shipping is $7.18. Strange.

Regards,
