Actually it would run with the OLED display on the F-body already, except it wouldn't update the pressures/temperatures because there's no TPMS receiver attached (yet). But because it is eye candy and you may be able to use it to show off at a car meet, I'll leave the code in there anyways ;-p Hopefully I'll get the Camaro graphics Derek sent me adapted sometime today, I'll post pictures when that's done. To answer your question: what's needed is a TPMS receiver with a CAN interface. So this TPMS receiver would be next on my ever growing ToDo-List.
Soooo, what I really need at this point is to either get my hands on the protocol documentation of a commercially available TPMS sensor, or reverse engineer one. My attempts to get my hands on documentation officially were futile, so I will probably have to end up reverse engineering one. But I have ordered quite a few circuit boards and parts in the DashComputer Lite development, I have to recover first before I dive into a new adventure ;-)

I will be selling my dash computer because my idea and plans are just not coming together. Will ship for free to lower 48 states for $300. I still love the dash computer! However, I found a deal on the AutoMeter LCD competition dash so, I'll be using that.

Some more eye candy Here's a short animation of the rear park assist gfx. Again, car and color are user definable...
Next I'll add the annoying beeping sound we all hate...

Not to nitpick all of your amazing hard work, but shouldn't the lines light up from the green side and progress towards red, starting away from the car and getting progressively closer as the obstacle nears? Keep up the good work! It's exciting to see things progress.

well, maybe I should have animated backwards (it was late last night). The animation shows an object moving away from the car. I'll make another video when the audible warning is done...

About finish another gauge cluster, this ines for Need4Camaro. Per his request the gauges are a orange gradient, oled dash computer and the plx dm100 oled gauge on the left side, white needles, white led back lighting and Corvette typeface. Again, all warning lights relocated to the center of the speedo and tach, custom circuit boards, inner bezel, and on this one Mike requested a custom outer bezel to finish it all off. I don't have the outer clear lens re attached yet, not do I have needles calibrated yet, so there just here for show Atm.

GMLAN working! Big step forward!
I've managed to get the CAN handler running! I have a Bosch park assist module from an Opel here that I used for testing (I was unable to acquire a 2008 Tahoe module that I need).
I have managed to connect to the GMLAN and receive the park assist's "I'm alive" messages! I built a table of all modules on the bus, and send my own alive messages as well.
I have ordered an aftermarket chime module hoping to get it on my little GMLAN as well. It'll take a few (?) days to get here though...
The next goal was to keep the park assist awake - it goes to sleep after 10 seconds as designed to. Managed to keep park assist awake as well today!
Can't wait to get my hands on my the chime module...
As you can tell, I'm pretty excited 😉

I hope eveyone who visits this thread drops a line in appreciation of all the hardwork thats in motion. I've checked in periodically, read the new updates and I'm blown away every time! Your know-how and hardwork is nothing short of marvelous!

Thanks for the comments folks!
It's been quite a journey and I've learned a lot in the process! I wish I had more resources (mainly time!) to do even more. What I expected to be a short trip into LS-GMLAN territory has developed into an adventure, and I've written a compact GMLAN driver in only 3 days that hopefully transplants a small GMLAN ring into our old but beloved cars!
The minimum configuration will be IPC (our little DashComputer) and UPA (park assist) or TPMS or both. Optionally an aftermarket chime module for better chimes than my little piezo speaker (who wants one of those modern GM head units when you can have aftermarket?), an aftermarket GMLAN adapter (to display some head unit info in DashComputer), build a GPS adapter and I'm also thinking of adding a GMLAN output to my steering wheel adapter. Then I could display some cruise related info on DashComputer as well.
Now I can't wait for the chime module to arrive to test my code in reality and also to get my hands on some connectors for my UPA module to continue testing my UPA module.
