Aftermarket TPMS
Installed an aftermarket TPMS system from Scrader/Bridgeport. Could not pass up the deal. Since I installed the 20's, with such a short sidewall, it would be hard to tell if I had a flat tire.
The system was pretty easy to install, install the sensors in the tires (did it at work), hard wire the receiver (3 wires), program the sensors to the reciever, and DONE! It monitors air pressure as well as tire temperature.
I installed just above the rearview mirror.
With all lights on:
It is a nice system as you can "set" your air pressure, and when there is a 5psi variance, the warning light with sound will come on. Also if the tire temp gets really high.

No pic, but the sensor is mounted directly behind the rubber valve stem. Held on by a Torx screw attached to the base of the valve, inside the wheel. If you Google "Scrader Air Aware 20257", you will see more pics of the sensors.
