Mine is working fine and it is quite handy to not have to check the tyres every now and then (although I still keep an eye on them). Retrofitting will be a bit of a mission as the "antennas" on the car need to be fitted with their wiring harness and piped into the electronics and I am not sure if the 2003 electronics have the necessary hardware and software for it.

There are systems available for cars and caravans which use transmitters in the valve caps and a small lcd remote display. Much easier.

I paid £245 in a group buy. Available from Britpart or sometimes on the bay. Coded to your own VIN. It allows a lot of functions, including disabling TPMS, resetting service indicator, reset EAS etc. Plenty on here about its capabilities. I consider it worth the money just to end the misery that is TPMS.
