TPMS Question/WTB

Recently I bought a set of OEM 20' wheels for my 2008 GL. I love the wheels and didn't give up much comfort going from 18', but the wheels didn't come with TPMS sensors. My plan was to drive the summer on the tires that the wheels came with and buy a new set before the winter and put on TPMS sensors at that time.

Few questions on TPMS:
1) Are the sensors different for 2007-09 models from 2010-2012? Can I fit sensors from any X164 GL wheels?
2) Are aftermarket (non-OEM) sensors good quality or is this one item where its better to buy OEM?

Lastly, if anyone is selling their OEM TPMS let me know and I'll buy them.
