This weekend's big accomplishments were running the accessory power, ground, and CAN wires into my glove box, and hacking up a quick Raspberry PI empeg display program based off of Jon's excellent work on his massive LED display.

Right now I just have it showing the empeg display on the TV in my living room while I work on what the rest of the interface will look like. With all the screen real estate left over due to the empeg's very wide aspect ratio, I was going to display track data and cover art from the current song, perhaps along with some sort of "now and next" display if there's room.

I haven't had time to do the CAN bus analysis yet, but now that the CAN wires are in the glove box it should be a lot easier since I won't have to tear apart the dash. Getting all the wires and the Lockpick unit to fit in there is hard enough that I'm hoping I never have to open it up again.
