Default Steelmate Tyre Pressure Monitoring System

https://www.supercheapauto.com.au/p-...75/343875.html

Put one of these in the Territory yesterday, I set the pressures to 40 PSI. Once installed it gave readings of 38-39 PSI, pretty accurate. I like the idea of the low pressure alarm (25 PSI).

I'll see how it goes over the next few weeks.

Pretty cool, but I'm not keen on the $150 price tag.
you can get ones that pair with your phone on ebay

$150 does seem a little steep for something so basic.

Let us know how they go long term. I've heard they actually send your tyres flat over time due to constantly pushing the pin down to get the reading.
