AiM VIM simple Vehicle Interface Module
This is a really handy little input expander from AiM, for use with dashes like the MXP, MXS etc. By having multiple "on/off" type inputs,
you can connect the feed that would have gone to normal warning lights on the dash, straight to the VIM, then use any combination of the dashes own
built in warning leds, or pop up warning messages, or on screen warning symbols. This leaves all the multipurpose inputs on the dash itself free for
gauges etc.
From AiM's website:

The Vehicle Interface Module (VIM), is a Pre-Configured small compact interface module, that provides a light, simple way, to input voltage signals to
the dash.
Manufactured in the UK by Aim Technologies, the module allows for connection of lights, left and right indicators, dipped beam, main beam, hazard
warning, in fact up to 14 independent voltage inputs, that are then sent to the display or logger through the CAN II stream, allowing you to turn on
the symbols or lights on the display.
The VIM Expansion adds up to 14 freely configurable analogue channels without occupying or modifying any of the existing system channels, leaving them
free for anything else. This simply goes next to the fuse box, and picks up the 12v signal to the light to turn the lights on the dash on. It leaves
the 4 or 8 analogue ones free, if needed in the future Connection Examples
I originally bought this second hand, with the connector already part configured to suit, but it can easily have the extra connections added, if
required.
I had it set up as below, before a change of plan, meant it was no longer needed.
New, these are £225 plus vat, yours for £120 including postage.
