    So I have a 6.5 in lcd in my dash and I am wondering if there is a product out there that will allow me to display gauges electronically. There used to be a product my hks called the CAMP but i cant find it anywhere anymore. Any info would be much appreciated.

    There are a few guys on openecu.org who have carputers that are running skinnable gauge setups.

    Basically it's nothing more than installing a small computer somewhere and then tapping into the obdII port. From there you can monitor whatever your heart desires.

    It's something I'd like to do down the road.

    There's a fellow on here (can't remember who, though) that is pretty knowledgeable on setting up carputers. Once that is in place, I could probably help out with getting some of the open source software running for you.

    Sorry to go off-topic but...

    HKS is now making a piggyback? Talk about being 4-5 years too late, lol.

    HKS has been making a piggyback for a while... actually they've been making multiple EM units for a while.
    Their the F-CON series...

    It looks like the new F-CON iS will have the video output.
    http://www.hks-power.co.jp/products/electronics/com/fcon_is.html
    i haven't seen any specs or info on it on this side of the pond though beyond a tradeshow video i stumbled across.
    it's not nearly as cool as the CAMP system, but it's still pretty cool and useful.
