i really don't understand how this could be useful to a hacker. aren't the TPMS sensors just an device which relays data TO the ECU. i dont see what kind of data the ECU could possibly send to these things.

and would the hackers charge us 50 dollars (like the dealer) to hack our TPMS?
Hacker: *rolls down window* excuse me sir, i just hacked your TPMS, you're going to have to give me 50 dollars for labor
You: wtf? that only took like 30 seconds...
Hacker: *holds out hand*
