If you look at the first page of that thread, I have pictures of the TPWS module and the connector with the wires.

hm. I'll look into it asap. Thanks much!
btw, not that I'm too concerned, but does this void any sort of warranty for electrical parts...and if at some point down the road I DID want to use TPMS, would it be easy to re-wire?

Nothing voids the warranty, unless something fails as a direct result.

To reverse this mod, you simply disconnect the brown from the white and splice it back together. The switch method allows you go back and forth by simply flipping a switch.

So... would this be something that could be done via the Scangauge II's XGauge feature? Xgauge allows you to send arbitrary queries to the ECU and display the response, scaling and/or offsetting it as appropriate. Essentially, it allows you to define arbitrary new gauges. That really would be quite slick.

No. From what I've found with things like turning off the seatbelt chime via can message to the cluster, you need to send more than one command, and the Xgauge mode only supports sending one packet.
