We have a plug-and-play ODBII reader, a microcontroller that needs only power (communicates to the reader via WiFi), an IPS display and a 3D printed vent system.   The heavy lifting is in getting working with a relatively new display integration to an ESP32S3 and libraries that are not yet mature.  Things like image animation, touch gesture control, HMI changes, integration with both the ODBII WiFi reader as well as my <a href=\"http:\/\/www.plastibots.com\/index.php\/2022\/06\/03\/neostrips-mazda-mx-5-nd-nd2-rear-dynamic-led-kit-for-sale-limited-quantities\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Neolumn8 <\/a>rear controller via ESP-NOW<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I&#8217;ll post new videos and updates here as this project progresses.
