    on a 512TR I never changed them, but I think it is the same as the TR and so no problem.
    but be careful that you use the right ones in the right hole, one is longer than the other

    They are identical to each other on a 512TR, testarossa is completely different. They are a 3 wire (shielded) VR sensor and yes you can change them in the car.

    just one more piece of advice please...is it best to work on changing the sensors from above the car or from under it... if from above it looks like i would have to remove the engine cover and the small panel next to rear screen, which in my relatively small garage would be tricky, but possible !
    thanks for all your advice....

    They are not difficult to exchange if the car is on a lift system.
