I finally ordered the rgb led arrays that will work as a shift light that will reflect onto the windshield, acting as a tachometer HUD.
In the meantime I saw some graphics of the 2017 Ford GT and...
Hey! Yea! I used a SN65HVD233-HT3.3-VCAN Transceiver. I didn't use an arduino but rather a Texas Instruments Tiva C Series TM4C123G LaunchPad. It's what I used in school and it's half the price, a lot faster, and it comes with a CAN controller built in, you just need the separate CAN...

I wanted to see if I could make a DIY shift light similar to the one found on the 2017 gt350s for my 2015 mustang v6, so I started off by hacking and playing with the CAN bus accessed through the OBDII port.
I used a micro-controller and a CAN transceiver and was able to find the CAN ID that...
