LCD screen and firmware

I've almost finished all the motor drive firmware, I only have the regen part of the motor firmware to write. I'm also about 50% of the way through the EV main control firmware for the vehicle and LCD screen, it gives me info like battery voltage, current, watt/hours used, watt/hours left, road speed, motor temperature etc.

Control box

Here is a pic of the control box I'm working on. It has the maple for motor control and an arduino for the main EV functions and driving the LCD screen on the dashboard.
