I posted this before but thought I'd throw it up here again, Not really a disable but this was one guy's solution..

Umm yeah I do...

1) Just ignore it...I dont like warning lights either but this one is small and not very bothersome. I have been driving like this for a few months and I dont even notice it anymore.
2) the easy solution...Put a small black circular sticker over the damn light, yes ghetto but still not nearly as ghetto as having a TPMS filled PVC pipe rolling around in your Z!
3) the harder way...If you really want it done right pull the cluster and disconnect the LED for the tpms.

Thanks Liquid_G. It's awesome that someone has a DIY work-around that leaves the car in a position it can be resold. I'd simultaneously love and hate to pull the light in the cluster. Though, I might cave in to peer pressure from jmlenz and skip the paint & NOS stickers.

The discussion in the thread is pretty interesting, too. Some like-minded thoughts.
