    A guy named Jon Hass makes about the coolest aftermarket improved eletronic stuff I have seen anywhere. Here's his site: http://www.pantera-electronics.com/. He is interested in making stuff for our cars if there are things we need and want. He is now a member of the board, - ItalianElectronics is his handle.

    One item I would really like to get for my car is the high tech fan controler. His design sounds a lot smarter than the stock one.

    The other thing that would be nice would be a set of those taillights. Brighter the better to keep the morons from smasing our cars!!

    What do you guys think?

    How about the Air Con system controller?

    They always seem to go wrong.

    How about a plug and play remote door lock system for the 348? I used to own a Delorean and there was a line of parts close to what this guy is proposing. He named it ZILLA products. So if he had a fuel sender fix, it was called Tankzilla. If he had a fanfix (he did) it would be called Fanzilla, etc. These products were plug and play. No splicing of wires whatsoever and you could always return the car to stock if you wanted to. The great thing about the door locks is that you could add other things to the fob as well. You could add raising the doors, popping the trunk, etc. What do you guys think? The 348 already has electric door locks so we would just be adding the remote ability. and maybe alarm?

    Exhaust ECU's, the remote locking kit plus a Momo/look-a-like steering wheel with stereo controls.

    I'd hazard a guess the 2.5, 2.7 348 and 2.7 and 5.2 355 ones (and probably 360) ones are all identical in the inside, just with different plug connectors. A cat ECU with some type of universal plug adapter would be way hot!

    How about the alarm & remote controls for the 355. Having to purchase the ECU module and remotes when the remotes go out is crazy.

    They already make a lot of kits that are pretty easy to install, but the thing that would make this a winner for me would be if you could continue to use the stock actuators. All the generic kits want you to install their actuators piggy back or whatever on the existing actuators if your car has them. Unclean! :eek:
