Automatic module for DOUBLE dash button press ?

Has anyone come across a module that will do a dashboard double button press ?

The stop/start modules that you can buy online simulate a single button press but the function i am trying automate requires a button to be pushed twice and i cant see anything obvious online
I dont care what plugs are on the module as i can easy cut/change and make it work just struggling to find anything suitable :(

Just an idea,
if are going to design it yourself.
if you mean something that gets a +12 pulse in input and gives you back in output two + 12V pulses like 200 ms each long and 200ms distanced, you could design something using only two discrete active components, like a NE555 and a CMOS latch.
The period can be chosen quite widely changing an R-C pair.
The input Pulse triggers the NE555 configured like a square wave generator. The latch reads the NE555 output and resets it on the 2nd descending front. If you need power output you can drive a small relay or a transistor out of the NE555.
Or if you are more of the CPU type, you could otherwise use something like a small 8 pin PIC microcontroller and program it accordingly. It can drive a relay (or a transistor buffer) too. You will need to arrange a minimum of power supply and decoupling stuff in both cases, a little better for the CPU case. Both the modules will need +12, GND, IN and OUT connections.
