I definitely want one of these providing I can afford it.
I can not recomend strongly enough that you sign up to the UK forum and get us some pricing up over there :D
Big sales to be had over here aswell :P

Nice Job, would be good if the red button controller could be "mounted" or hidden somewhere, rather than sitting on the Console.
BTW: The USA is the only nation that uses a TPM System (Tires pressure) AFAIK.
UK, Australia and Europe don't.
Also, to answer a question on Oil Temps and Oil Pressure, Mazda does not monitor these, they don't have the necessary sensors to monitor them, only an OIL Pressure WARNING Switch/Sensor.
Either way it is not on OBD II.
For Series I and Series II RX-8's.

Hope you are not infringing on any registered names??, just thought I would give you heads up..
Would hate to see you go into print etc.

pieter3d- Great job man.
I know you mentioned finding a manufacturing facility to build your GOODbox, but if you intend to build a couple revised pilot PCBs and would like an extra hand soldering, I could help out.
I work for an SMT manufacture building PCBs so I have access to soldering stations.
I know those 0201 caps and that QFP can take time to do properly.
Just thought I would offer any assistance if you needed/wanted the help.
Keep up the good work!

Amazing work man, you really put a lot of effort into this project. I'm very interested in buying on of these for my speed3 and I'd like to see what your price comes to.
Also you've gained some attention on other forums as well http://www.mazda3forums.com/index.php?topic=170969.0
You might want to consider getting on mazda3 forums .com I think if you post something about it you could get considerable interest. You'll have no problem selling 50 of these.
Once again great work man!

Don't know anything about programming, but I could help on the PCB soldering side.
