Default Tire pressure sensors

Hi all- I did a search, but WOW- a lot of posts, and I didn't find quite what I was looking for, so please forgive if I have missed an answer that's already here.
1999 Coupe. 2 of the tire pressure sensors are malfunctioning. The constant messages notifying me that my tires are flat are making me crazy (crazier?). So, first, can they be disabled more than what the reset button can do?

2) Does anyone have any experience with the rebuild kits offered? http://www.rebuildtpms.com/index2.ht...325884%2Cd.dmQ

3) I am considering switching my stock rims for a set of chromes that I have. If I rebuild/replace the sensors, can they be transferred to the new chromes? If not, am I doomed to watch the warning lights come on every 20 minutes every time I drive?

Thanks!

Sam

This tire pressure sensor battery replacement writeup is for a C6 but applies similarly to a C5:
