Another update on the ESS. It's all working, with 3 issues, 2 are minor, one not so. But just to make all the T series guys jealous, the report I have is that the volume controls still work, but there is a slight break in audio (one of the minor issues) - still, better than having no volume control! The not so minor issue relates to holding the car in first, but a solution will be found (or I'll just take it the way it is anyway!!!).

I'll keep you all informed how i go on this mod too , so far i've just been looking at modding it though so you can put a switch somewhere to activate triptronic , and use the (+) and (-) volume controls or cruise control buttons to change gears , athough there's no reason why it could'nt be changed easily to use a momo wheel with the extra triptronic gear changing switches. If it is a hydraulic change from 1st to 2nd ? ( soon to find out ) , that would make sence with the box hitting nutruel/safety .. and if that is the case , then darn im gonna have to go making a pcb too and go hacking into the ecu . lol Still a work in progress anyway .. cheers . EDIT .... now i think of it , it actually wouldn't be to hard to skip the safety feature / if that is the case, well incorperate it into the setup anyway . Really I'de just need to make a pcb that will read the cars revs/tacho, have an adjustable pot on the pcb so it can be set to different rpm settings for different cars. Have the pcb register the potted setting (If say your car hits safety/nuetural around 50km/& say around 5900 rpm) then you would set the pot to hit safety around 5850rpm, which in turn would automatically change the gear to 2nd if you didn't change it to 2nd before 5850rpm. hmmmm
