I am a huge fan of having the minimal gauges in my car and figured I would just make my own setup so i could toggle things on and off for diagnostic purposes. I was looking into sticking a small 1.3" oled into the driver side vent at one point.

I never finished the code but did manage to make some progress. I also was making progress using an STN based chipset (ELM327 replacement) and was working with ST trying to resolve an issue with using raw data not coming in correctly to make a cheaper / easier solution for working with SSM like setups.
Cool. I'd love to have a look at what you've written.

I also started looking at CAN stuff, but got discouraged due to its complexity, lack of documentation, and the amount of proprietary stuff involved.
