Developer Brandon Fiquett has successfully created a plugin to Siri Proxy that lets him control his vehicle using the iPhone assistant.

The "Siri Proxy" plugin I wrote handles interaction with a php script that runs on my web server. The php script, which I developed months ago for personal use, allows me to send commands to my car which has a Viper SmartStart module installed.
