I'd have one if the system worked on my Citroen C4, and the price was around the £50 mark.

Forgot to ask Robby..would it be possible to alter your software so you could "plugin" different car pictures? That way each user could produce a picture of their car model, or download others if available.

I'd be more than happy with the "default" BMW picture, but if I could display a Citroen C4 that would be awesome!!!

The program has been developed as RoadRunner “Extension Plugin”, so you can change everything in the skin in the same way you can do it for RoadRunner.
You only need an image editor like PhotoShop and the Windows Notepad (or "RR Skin Editor" if you prefer).

I would like have it to.

Robby if I must build it what I must do:
-Buy this kit from ebay
-Get someone which can do PCB for me
-then get receiver PCB from original interface
-Get programmed PIC (Can you buy PIC and programm it?)
-put receiver PCB to USB PCB
-pack it into case

Is this ok or something missing?
Do you need receiver(or something) to program PIC or Is all PIC same?
Can we get some source code or. example how to program application? Is posible to get plugin for Centrafuse?
Thanks for your help and time.

Bye, _Dejan_
