Default TPMS from Amazon, anyone try?

Just got a used set of wheels, which came with TPMS sensors, and I also have the TPMS sensors on my OEM wheels. Since I've got no clue how much longer any of these will last, I was thinking about getting a new set. Anyone try these from Amazon:

Amazon.com: SD05 OEM 40700JA01B 07-12 Nissan Set 4PCS TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor 350Z 370Z Altima 07 08 09 10 11 12: Automotive Amazon.com: SD05 OEM 40700JA01B 07-12 Nissan Set 4PCS TPMS Tire Pressure Sensor 350Z 370Z Altima 07 08 09 10 11 12: Automotive

I bought the same ones on ebay, and they work great on my 07.

That's great - thanks for responding. I figure I might as well replace them before I get new tires and save the future labor if/when one of the old ones fails. The sensors in my '08 came with the car, so I guess I'm getting close to the end of their life, right?

Ya, the sensors last ~ 4-5 years. When mine was going out, it would not send a strong enough signal to the car. So occasionally when the car is not moving, my TPMS light would start flashing, and it'll go away after I start moving. It eventually just crapped out after 1 year of weak signals.

I'm personally OCD when it comes to dash lights, so it was a must do fix/replacement.

And I'm not personally sure how long those ebay/amazon ones last, but I figured as long as it works decent and last a few years, I see no point shelling out $50+ per oem sensor.
