I'd be very interested in this as well. Like some of the other posters, i'm a bit reticent to start pulling my car apart to install this as i have no aptitude for this kind of thing. So i'll ask, are there any shops that would install this in the DC Metro region? Also, if there are any forum members in the DC area that have done this and could help me implement this that'd be cool too.
Thanks guys

I know you have already pulled apart your dash, so maybe you can help out here in preparation for this test.
According to the service manual, the shift **** has to come out, then the cover with the shift boot comes out next. That exposes a couple of srews at the bottom of the panel with the clock which comes out next. Finally the 2 screws holding the nav panel are exposed which are then removed.
My question is are there any tricks or lessons learned while doing any of this because I sure would hate to break any plastic tabs on those panels. Even better would be some "how to" photos from the last time you pulled your dash apart!
Thanks!

I would say start at the back, and work forward. So you always lift the back or the bottom FIRST, and when putting things back together you do it backwards... top or front first.
It's really hard to break anything when doing this, because you only have a couple of clips around the beginning when removing the shifter trim. After that, everything is held in by a couple of screws. 2 screws to the clock piece, 2 screws to the screen, etc.

Getting the **** off and the trim piece around the **** are the only two place where we were hesitant for fear of breaking stuff. We got on here and found info on how to remove the shift **** - it is really easy if you know how. Then, we just pulled up on the center trim piece. It's kind of hard because there isn't a good way to grip it. After that, I believe it's all screws. When you get to that point if anything is providing resistance take a second and make sure you didn't miss any screws.

Put your finger in the rear portion of the boot and pull up. Works like a charm all the time.

THAT'S what I wanted to know! Screwdrivers on the shifter trim make me nervous! I know there are 2 metal clips on the back of the shifter trim. The rest is cake.

it is to mod
I would like to test one of your modules if you have enough prototypes.
I have considerable experience working with car electronics, and a keen
interest in this particular issue.
Thank-you

We are going to build a few prototypes just to verify that they work as well as our first module did. After the testing is done we will then make a decision as to how to proceed.
We will most likely be looking for 5 people who can perform the installation themselves (we don't like our test units to be professionally installed) in a timely manner. In exchange, we will offer the unit at a big discount. If you are interested and capable of testing the unit please add your name to the list:
We will contact people when we get closer to having the actual modules.
