It will continue to be available after the first run.

A/F was just asked a couple of posts above. It is a maybe depending on if I can figure out the CAN command to get the ECM to give it to me (as it isn't a standard OBD PID). Boost would be a no, as it requires adding a pressure sensor.

@CTScott: You are the MAN! Please let me know when I can snatch one of those OBD modules of yours, since my carpc needs a fast one (the ELM unit I bought does not refresh quickly enough for me).

Oh yeah. I had been trying to figure out a good trademark for the PCB. A little icon of Crashy it is...

$75 and I would definitely be keen... that is a bargain!

edit: after reading the thread it seems its not 100% compatable with AUS clusters...

Would it be possible to fit it in the OEM position if one de-soldered the VFD for the clock?

There's not enough room behind the clock VFD on your cluster, but for US and Canadian clusters with tachs and digital clusters like yours, I am going to offer alterternative mounts as a single DIN plate (for those using a single DIN aftermarket radio) and a mount that replaces the left center A/C vent.

This cannot be released soon enough. :D

Do you have any pictures of the vent mount yet?

I test mounted it to a vent with some sheet ABS that I had on hand. The push button will be to the left of the display, like the clock replacement one.

That is awesome and very clean looking (especially since I painted my centre console black, so this will be very sleek).
