very nice work, Colin. Shame with all the work/effort you put into this project, you're not gonna make them available.. Hmmm.. I could most likely get these manufactured in china at some of my electronics factories.. Who wants in??

This is something I'd definitely consider, as I'm forever manually deploying the damn thing. Annoyance aside, I actually like it. I know it's adolescent, but it makes me feel like I'm deploying the flaps on an airplane prior to take off...and have you ever seen the smiles on 12-15 yr old boys when they see it rising and falling? Priceless. And it's something no other car in the world does.

I'm in for one too as long as the cost is reasonable.

Great work Colin !!!

I'm in on one of those ! Either the board only or a plug and play box.
Wouldnt these work on the 964's as well ? Just thinking it would be a bigger marked with both 993 and 964 ?
