Why wouldn't you go through with it?

We're looking at it from a financial stand point. Its definately a cool module, and I think it will sell well, and work well, but we need to be sure that we can sell them before we commit. I've posted threads about this module on a few other websites and most poele seem unimpressed and unintersted. Its really hard to dump the money in to a project ahead of time when there are only ~20 people intersted in it!

I do have an idea of how to make it all work, I'll just have to spend some time implementing it and seeing if it can be pulled off. My target date to have the entire mirror tilt module done is May 20thish, and it doesn't look like that will happen, but i guess its not totally impossible!

Add me to the list.. but depending on how close to the original position it really gets.. after how many times would i eventually have to adjust it?

I'm in for sure if you can get it to return to the exact location.

Wow, and I thought it couldn't get any better when I got the sunroof module. I'm really looking forward to this when its released. I was so envious of my roommate when he showed me that his acura TL had this feature.

Please add me too. I just bought my G one month ago and I think this would be a good start for my mods . I have also been really looking into electrochromatic/electrochromic windows.

Yeah, that would make a great addon. Unfortunately they'd never be able to produce a fully working memory seat module. I'm not sure about the sedan, but the coupe uses a handle to adjust the seat-back, it's not electronic. So the best they'd be able to do is create a memory module to retain tilt and slide location which makes it kinda useless

This module should be universal for the Z also? I figure those guys would jump in on this also.

The spike in interest as of late has motivated me to work on it more. The goal right now is to make it cheap enough that we don't have to sell many to make our money back.

I spent a little bit of time working on the code last night, there are still some things I need to tweak before I'm happy with it, most of it related to shutting the car off and starting the car, as I always leave my car in reverse, which, at this point, screws the module up.
