Mission Control - Modded!
I haven't seen it posted or heard of anyone actually trying yet but..
Mission Control CAN be modified.. Very, very, easily.
The files are obviously located on the SD Card in the secret compartment. I popped it out, plugged it into the computer and there are 2 folders. "Test" and "Missions". The "Missions" directory has 1321 mp3 files in it. I dropped them all into a playlist in iTunes. Played a lot of them to figure out what they were. Each one shares a similar name with others for the same situation in the car. For example, all the files relating to Auto Air-Conditioning might be named something like caf01, caf02, caf03, etc.. Cruise control might be crh01, 02, etc..
Basically it's just as simple as finding the file you want to change or remove, and replace it with another mp3 file named the same way. They aren't encrypted, locked, or anything like that. The length doesn't seem to matter either.
So anyhoo, I've only changed a few of the responses so far. I'm trying to make everything just a touch more serious.. There are several built-in response I'm leaving the same, most really, but a couple where I'll trim out a bit of the banter. For the most part, I enjoy what they've done.
Try it yourself, and enjoy!

If you have a Camden then you just open the compartment and the SD card is just to the left of the On/Off button for the Mission Control feature. No tools/brains required, it's plain as day. If you don't have a Camden I'm not sure how different the retrofit would be. I also have no idea what the part numbers or cost would be as it is a standard feature on my car.
