The OFT does it by sending packets, not by changing the rom. You could write an app to send the CAN bus packets using the Tactrix to do all sorts of things but you can’t use RR to customize the rom and then flash it for a permanent fix.

If you want to get into CAN bus hacking you would be better of with an Arduino and a CAN bus shield. There aren’t any Linux drivers for the Tactrix and you don’t want a full windows machine in your car just to send some CAN bus packets.
