Default Tire pressure sensor help

Can someone out there with a late model service manual tell me what the torque spec is for the pressure sensor mounting nut? I know it's 105 lb in for my 99 but I think it's different for my 04. Thanks. - C.

Per page 3-113 of the 2001 Shop Manual, for domestic vehicles, 4 N-m or 35 lb in.

Lug nuts are 100 FT. lbs. I've got a '99 and the sensor nut spec is 106 INCH lbs., which is about 9 FOOT lbs. Wouldn't think the newer model would be much different.
