Very nice work...:yeso::yesb::yesgray::yesy:

Which Rostra part number did you order? I looked at these but they were vehicle specific and nothing listed for the VX.

Sweet display for TPMS. A question tho -- if you rotate the tires how do you reprogram the TPMS so it knows which tire is where?

From the Q&A on their ebay site:

Q8: Can users do Tire Swap such as Front & Rear or Left & Right exchange without having to re-install the tire sensors?

A8: KIPOINT's TPMS unit supports Tire Sensor Re-program mode. Users can just press a few buttons on the receiver to complete the tire swap / repositioning. There is no need to change any settings on the tire sensors.
