Well, to continue the "spontaneous ignition" theme, an Omega with an ageing power sounder would be perfect, no? :-X

Didn't Mark post a link for a source of lasers? Happy to do the surgery if you get a laser.

Hi did, and that's a kind offer, it's a job that will have to be done one way or another. If I could find the time ATM I'd order it and have a go at replacement, I love these sorts of jobs, assuming it's intrecate and fiddly watchmaker type work?. Sadly my/your recommendation for marine ply bathroom upgrade had it's legs removed in no uncertain terms.  >:(

TB, have seen on German auction site a CANBUS simulator for putting a CANBUS Audi radio into an older NON-CANBUS car, and this £25 little box of tricks gives the ignition sense signal to turn it on and off. I`m going to have a play to see if it can be modified in any way for use on the Omega, but mention it in case you get to research it before I do.

I know it's Dave's business, but it's so refreshing to find someone who obviously puts so much time & effort into something that he "can't stand." I can't imagine the money he makes from here is a great deal when compared to his website & physical business.

There are many others on other forums could learn a lot from him- many thanks & please keep it up!

*excuse my while I throw up..... ;) :y :y :y

I'm sure I've seen devices that will take other signals - vehicle speed, RPM, etc. and send the information on a CAN bus. Can't remember where I saw it or why I was looking though. ::)

It probably wouldn't be that hard to build something. Plenty of little microcontrollers have built-in CAN interfaces these days and the head unit would probably only be a "consumer" of CAN packets, so you probably wouldn't have to talk to it interactively, just simulate a subset of the packets that would be spat out by the rest of the car.

Hmm. another project to add to the pile. ::)
