Default tpms replacement question?

So the TPMS outer sleeve has cracked (probably due to the cold weather, ice), and this needs to be replaced. However, it's integral to the TPMS system...ie. not a normal valve stem. That specific TPMS sensor is corroded and shot anyways. I turned off the system last year as I just don't care about it, I check my pressures enough w/ a 'manual' air pressure gauge =).

So, I'd like to just remove the TPMS on the twin-spokes in general, but the tire store thought these systems can't be replaced w/ anything but another TPMS. Question to the brain trust is this: Is there a normal valve stem that I can order to replace this whole TPMS thing?

I hope that all makes sense. TIA!

Default pretty sure a regular valve stem (rubber) would work

There does not appear to be different part #'s on wheels for tpms or not so valve stems should interchange
