The accessory I love is the little screen that gives the numerical read out for the tire pressures of each tire. I was a little annoyed I have to buy a product to do it when the car tpms system is capable of providing that information.

I have a 2018 mazda cx5 GT with TPMS. For these mazdas across all trims, TPMS just controls a light if one of your tire pressures is too low. However, the higher trim models should come with sensors in each tire which send out more information like the pressures and temperatures of each tire. Check your air pressure tire valves. If the valves/caps are silver and look like some sort of steel, that means you have these sensors. These transmit a radio frequency signal periodically and the car has a receiver somewhere to take that information in. Like I mentioned earlier, Mazda decided it just wanted to handle the low tire pressure light. Mazda didn't seem to care enough to give us access to all the extra tire information that these sensors provide. If you have these sensors, you can buy this receiver like I did that displays both the tire pressures and temperatures of each tire. https://www.amazon.com/Orange-Electronic-Pressure-Location-Display/dp/B077RVS8LB Bonus is these sensors are more accurate than any tire pressure gauge you can buy. I have tire pressure gauge for the motorcycle and I regularly check to make sure its readings match the readings I get from my CX5 TPMS sensors.
If you have the black/rubber tire valves/caps, that means you don't have the sensors in each wheel and TPMS works by calculating rotational speed of each wheel and doing some kind of math there. No sensors or signals sent in this case so there is no receiver you can buy to make this work.
There's this but it's spendy for what should've been a standard feature.
