Genesys has the STC's with legacy systems but "business decision" and is not making those right now. Said to talk to Trio. Trio most talkative but "committed for the foreseeable future on projects". Aerocruze,Honeywell/Bendix King, they have the STC's they have and there didn't seem to be interest or forthcoming process for adding other airframes. Avidyne, didn't really have much to say. They're focused on their IFD's.
Garmin was the most positive saying to add my name to the interested list on their website. (I did that in the past when this popped up previously and have been there for a while).
Fingers crossed and with time, hopefully Garmin will come through.
I don't even have the 400A but the older 400 and it is rotted. Would take alot to get it in shape.

Would take a miracle, to be precise. I know of but one individual person that will work on them, and have very little experience with them. This is after copious research and phone calls to every name dropped on these forums and elsewhere. Even then, he says he can't get ahold of many of the internals, relying on used components which, of course, are not always reliable.
