I know there was a post a while back about how to get a message programmed to display at startup on the driver information center, but I can't find it... how do I do it and which trucks can I do it to? LB7, LLY, LBZ, LMM?:cheers:

There's a "message" file located someplace under the EFILive file tree.

Okay,
I found that but I don't know what to do with it haha. I'll post up what it currently says right now. Also, if I change it...it will display the same thing on every vehicle right? Or can I make it for individual vehicles?

I think it worked on my 2008 TBSS, but its got an 02-06 cluster in it (GM didnt change the TB clusters).

It won't work on vehicles with a cluster that is on the Single Wire CAN bus.

No, it's only temporary and can't be made permanent.
