Default Complete (mostly) HUD commands and symbol sets document

Done documenting my reverse engineering...

Here is the complete (mostly) command and symbol sets for the 6th generation HUD. This can be used to hijack the HUD and display things you want to (as the radio and navigation units do). Contains examples on how to use the commands too.

6th GenCorvette HUD commands and symbol set.pdf

I'm slowly using this information to make the HUD display Valentine1 radar detector output. I'm nearly done (though I my "real" job and life make it a slow affair), just working out some bugs. When complete, will post the plans.

Very cool! We programmer types out here thank you!! Reverse engineering such stuff can be laborious and a pita. Even if I never use it, just grokking it is a good thing!
