TPMS Frustration!!!

Last year I ordered some TPMS sensors for my 2011 2SS Convertible with part #13586335. The company I ordered from sent me the newer version with part number 23445327. Needless to say when the tire shop tried to program them they would not relearn. I went home and tried the manual procedure and still no luck. They are 315Mhz so I am not sure why they wont relearn. Today I called my local dealer to get the part number from them. They said #13598772 based on my VIN. I looked them up on Rock auto and Amazon and they both say they are not for my car and in the description on rock auto they said they have to be set with a Scan tool.
So do I order these for about $65 and pay Discount $80 to install and rebalance and hope they work or do I Just pay $200 and get them from Discount and know they should work. I can't believe how frustrating this is. In hindsight I should have taken the ones out of my stock wheels and reused them.

Will it work on the sensors currently in my wheels (the ones in my pic)?The tool that Discount had wouldnt work on them.

It says 315 and 433 MHZ. If your sensors are those then it should work. It says it won't work on aftermarket sensors with a different freq.
