They discuss Canbus on EVTV Motor Verks - Electric Car Conversion Videos.

They appear to have addressed this in this episode: http://media3.ev-tv.me/news101014-iPhone.mp4

All I know is what I picked up there. I've been following it because I want to add Canbus to my 1958 Beetle. It appears Canbus is a read-only channel. Devices assert an address and a data packet. Other devices listen for the address and ignore anything else.
