I wonder if there's a market for a little device that taps into the CAN-bus(es) and auto-applies your desired settings on startup.


My dealer suggested that I cover the sensor with electrical tape, since that is what all his other customers were doing. It will then just give off a single warning when you start the car telling you, that the forward attention warning is disabled.

I have since learned that you can put some tinfoil between the sensor and the tape and seemingly disable it completely without any alarms going off.

With that in mind I wouldn't be surprised if there was a market for a gadget that remove all the hassle. I am definitely not alone with this issue.
