You'll have a fun time at the Dragon; a nice group of people help with any question and plenty of good looking Crossfires.
As to the TPMS the batteries in the TPMS inside the rims of OEM wheels are shot. Most everyone has disabled the system to get rid of the annoying instrument cluster warning light, or have replaced the old system with new stems and then had them all calibrated to work with the Crossfire system. Check your wheels and look at the valve stems. If they are metal and show a nut screwing them down tight they may still be the originals. If you do not have the warning light lite on the dash then don't think nothing more about them, but you might want to check next time you have a tire replacement to see if you have a sending unite inside the rim. If you choose to ignore the warning light it can be easily disable . Click
DISABLE Don't let a tire store insist that your car requires the TPMS. That is not correct for 2004 or 2005 Crossfire. The Federal mandate did not become effective until 2006. There is a lot of information on this forum about the Crossfire. If you have any question type in the search box on the upper right corner, choose the google option and search the forum for the info you are looking for. Enjoy the ride!
PS Looking at your picture the stems on your car look to be rubber, so the original OEM sending units have been removed and if you have no warning light it has probably been disable as per the link I provided above. Just for your info. I do not have the system active; I'm old school on that and use a simple air pressure gauge when I have a need to know.
