I highly doubt that you could get this to work since you are going to need more than just the wheel sensors. The electronics in the car that read the sensors are most likely missing as well. You would be better off getting an aftermarket system if you need this functionality.

I think you would have an incredibly difficult time getting TPS to display in a non-TPS car. Anythings possible though, for the right amount of money.
