[200q20v] Re: [s-cars] upgrade advice

[CL Wong]

The schematics for this project are located at
www.opendiag.org  the interface has about 10
components so it's not too complicated for someone
like me with little electronic experience.

There is also a discussion group setup at egroups to
discuss building these interfaces and writing software
for them.

The only research that needed to be done was getting
the parts list and someone has already posted that
information to egroups with digikey part numbers.

There is lots of discussion about what worked and what
didn't work for folks in their own interface projects
including some people having circuit boards printed
(which makes the project alot easier; not the avenue I
took)

I was planning on submitting my notes from my
interface adventure either to egroups files section,
my geocities website or to Chris Miller.  Just need
the time.
