TPMS replacement?

I asked this in another thread, but thought I'd get a quicker response by starting a separate thread on this...

When replacing tires, do you need to get new TPMS or can the existing TPMS be reused in our cars?

Thanks!

May be reused after changing tires, wheels, or both. Done it.

You may need a TPMS "rebuild kit" that costs a few bucks and is a new valve stem and a couple of "o" rings.
