Care to expound on this a bit? What do you typically use? Any details you can share are appreciated.

You access the HU through SSH. This gives you read/write access to the storage of the HU. You find and replace the image to any custom image.
You need to first unlock the SSH port by buying activation code, then login using any SSH client then copy the images to the HU.

PM me more details please - I might have you do this on my car. Can you post some example pics of what you have changed it to in the past?
