If you don't have the module then I assume going to be tough to add without a helluva expense.

Best bet would then go this route. At least the cheapest without having to go the RV type route where they just screw on a cap.

re-opening an old thread on TPMS
2006 C4S
Is there a way to tell if i have/should have TPMS without playing with the computer? the car is in storage and i need to order tires for when it comes out. Do build sheets include this info and if so, how do i get one?
such is one of the challenges faced by a newbie. thank you for any input.

i believe tpms oem factory issue by law was MY 2007. the technology was out before that but as an option only.
to the OP, there are various standalone aftermarket tpms adapters, but they look like overtly tacky/large tire valve caps (to house the tire pressure electronics)
The only oem looking tpms sensors I have seen, are the ones available as a USB add-on that is connected to any android based deck. These type of tpms sensors look like the factory ones where the TPMS electronics are hidden by the tires themselves - and can only be installed when fitting the tire to the rim. I have these for my 2005 mated to my android pcm as my car didnt have oem tpms.
I did buy a standalone tpms system but sold them right away - the tire caps look so large + silly.

TPMS was always an option prior to the 07 MY cars. I ordered them for my 06. Very glad to have them. TPs are critical on such low profile tires. To retrofit them is not an inexpensive proposition. Keep in mind that the wiring harness is custom to each car due to options and adding something like that is possible but pricy down stream.
