Default brake pads with wear sensors..

Having a 2001, I've got the wear sensors on my brake pads, but apparently you can fool the sensor by splicing the 2 sensor wires together and utilizing any brake pad you'd like. I want to put on some mintex pads, and the ones w/o sensors are bout $15 cheaper for the set. Is it worth skimping and just faking out the sensor?

It's your call. They are really for people that don't know when it's time to replace the pads.
