Thought I'd post this as it might be of interest to you lot

Rather a work in progress, but to solve the problem of not being able to mount my empeg in view of the driver in my new car (well, the one which will hopefully arrive in 6 months or so), I've put a small VFD actually inside the revcounter.

More pics when I've finished it. Basically it's a monochrome (no greyscales) 128x32 VFD module from Itron hooked up to the serial port of the empeg with some software changes (though it's simple enough to go into Hijack if required). Currently you only get about 3 frames per second, but I'll sort that out before it gets installed
