I know this concept has been thrown around a lot on this forum, but I'm going to be brave and bring it up again.
My plan is to place a fairly large (approx 4' x 1.5') solar panel on the front dash while the car is parked to take advantage of the intense Arizona sun out here. I figure I'll give it a go and see if it messes anything up in the IMA system. If the computer has a hard time dealing with it, then I'll be out $150 (assuming I don't permanently damage anything) and I'll figure out some way to sleep at night. In the mean time, if anybody has any knowledge about where the best place to hook up the leads into the battery circuit, I'd greatly appreciate it. Or if anyone knows a website that sheds some light on this subject (specifically hooking up a solar panel to the Insight IMA system), that'd be awesome.
Thanks!
