aftermarket tpms sensors
 

ok,
i really really searched and have found nothing on anyone using anything other than stock mazda tpms sensors.

has anyone used anything else such as these? here

if so did you have to do anything special to have them recognized? I have the flashing tpms light going on, and after 13 years i am sure a battery or two is dead.

beers :beer:

And I just let the guy drive off with three of them today...................Ray at BHR has the fourth! :)

swoope, did you ever find any aftermarket sensors?
Started getting the flashing TPMS here as well and I'm certain like you it's probably a few batteries on their way out after 14+ years. (pretty impressed they lasted this long to be honest)

TPMS Sensors
 

I bought these on Amazon last month, had them installed at Discount Tire for about $10/tire, worked first time with zero issues :)

awesome!
thanks gixxer2go, I appreciate it.

For the record, had wheels and tires shipped with sensors from Tire Rack in the past. They worked perfectly, and way cheaper than OEM Mazda sensors. Pretty sure as long as they are the correct MHz rating 315, then you're good to go.

Bought the Dormans from RockAuto for my winter wheel/tire set and have worked fine...

sounds like there's quite a few different options (or at least different retailers) available to us for aftermarket sensors.
I imagine those of owners who have 04-06 cars with original TPMS sensors will be in the market for them pretty soon. (mine died last month, June 05 build)
