I wasn't able to use my tps sensors and it does have a check light on. I put up some new pictures on page 1 with my is-f tail lights!

If you have 19" VS-XX wheels they ARE TPMS compatible. You will first need the L-shaped adapters (I got mine off ebay). Then go to a reputable tire shop that has the "good red machine" used for tire mounting. Haha I'm too lazy to find it but there's a thread in the 2IS section about tire mounting machines.

Anyways, the owner and his employee at the tire shop tried to convince me not to put it on because they were afraid my low profile tires would kill my TPMS sensor when I hit a bump. But they were convinced to give it a shot when they took off my sensors from my original wheels and put them on the new ones. The only thing is that it would be hard to take off later, so remember to remind them when you change out the tires.
