Default Gauge display on LCD screen

Does anyone make a driver that can send sensor data (AFR/EGT/Temp/ect.) to a generic LCD screen like a stereo w/ a fold-out monitor? The closest thing I can find is the new PLX gauges. But I'm trying to stay away from adding 'pods' to my car.

Thanks for any leads...

Not sure if this would interest you, but

Supports NepTune, NepTune RTP, eCtune, Crome, and K-Pro for now.

Wow, the price point on that thing is great.

I really need to be able to see sensors that the ECU isn't necessarily monitoring. But thank you very much for the link. You guys have great products.

Thanks, I was trying to make it very affordable for everyone.

You'll be able to hook up and configure 3 extra 0-5v sensors to be displayed on the LCD, but shhhh that hasn't been announced yet.

Thanks for the link. Might be a little too robust for me, especially with the need for a pc to run the system.

Hmm, that thickens the plot...
Any chance you have pics of the complete unit or dimensions?
When you configure a page with less than 8 parameters, will they still only be able to operate 1/8th of the screen? For instance, will two parameters leave a lot of empty space?
When do you expect to know about those other color options mentioned on your site?

6.5x2.5x2" or so, fits in a radio DIN with a little extra space. Has two holes in the back for optional suction cup mount or you can use those to mount it to any flat surface.

Yup, entering a space actually leaves a space in that slot. It's good for grouping items.

Color options will be announced at release time, but I can tell you there's some awesome combinations possible.

I have everything here assembled and ready to go. Just waiting on the cases themselves to be finished.

One thing I should mention is that the additional 0-5v logging will only be available with NepTune and eCtune until the crome guys add the correct locations to their datalogging protocol. I may release a custom script that does this or offer to put it in their mainstream script for them.

I actually do have a few Amber LCDs sitting here and it will be an option to custom purchase. If you preorder, I give you the option to upgrade to the Amber LCD at no additional charge.

Final specs are done pretty much, just waiting on the cases to be completed. The above dimensions are what the final will be. Pre-order link is on the page posted above.

I came across a thread on your site w/ a diagram of the lcd dimensions. Where did the unit pick up an extra 2.5+ inches in width from lcd to case?

Is it close enough to the release date to announce the color options?

I'll hear from the Mill this week on the status. I'll email everyone if the date changes, but it's still within reach at this point until they say otherwise.
