For the best car PC install for my car I'm going to be hiding the climate control unit behind the touchscreen, but by no means would I want to lose the functionality of it. So with the help of some
Phidgets I've made a plugin to get all the control I need within Centrafuse.
I'm going to be using one
PhidgetInterfaceKit 0/0/4 to 'press' the buttons on the climate control unit.
I've included the ability to customise the MAX and MIN settings for the temperature. I've still got to make a few changes after I realised that my climate control actually goes in increments of .5 degrees instead of 1.
These screens are a couple of days old, I've since added a 'light' to indicate whether the climate control is actually on or off.

Let me know what you think, hopefully I'll be able to share it soon.
I just noticed that in the screenshot the plugin shortcut was still the "weather" link... I guess you can tell which example I worked from
