Not specific to EVs, except insofar as they're coming of age at the same time as the automakers are trying to follow in the computer industry's footsteps.
http://www.hotrod.com/news/1504-can-automakers-legally-stop-you-from-working-on-your-car/ Homebrew conversions are going to have a great deal of attraction to them for anybody who doesn't want some corporate beancounter somewhere telling them what they can and can't do with an hunk of steel they just paid good money for. My only fear is that the automakers might try to get legislation passed that requires the original manufacturer to "certify" any such conversion. Can you imagine having to get permission from GM to drive your newly-electrified '57 Caddy? b& -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
