That dangling wire was where the on/off and brightness controls plug in. I unplugged it to remove the cover.

I would love this to be some sort of holographic dvd projection cinema display, but there is nothing to project apart from that slide.

The circuit board is purely power conversion and voltage regulation. There are only three cables. One from the main vehicle loom, red and black, = power. There is the one for the switch/dimmer and the other goes to the lamp. There are no other external connectors. There is no camera/lcd anywhere, this will only shine the lamp through the slide and create a red/green image.

By the time the light passes out the slots it is to diffused to create a noticeable cylinder pattern, its just an orangery glow on white paper. By the time the paper is on the windscreen it barely illuminates as the beam is spread over a large area. Maybe there is a lens missing or something? Who knows.


Regards

Tim
