I need a way of converting the chat into a gui for a type of radio I'm developing along with a friend. A talk button is also needed. I can't provide any examples as I have no idea. It also needs to appear when you sit on a vehicleseat and disappear when you exit

It's lucky for you that Roblox have already made a function for that ready to serve.
Here is how to use it for a certain player.
local plr = [Insert player here]
plr.Chatted:connect(function(message)
print(plr.Name..' just said: '..message)
end)
If you want to use it for a crowd. Just add PlayerAdded function (which also already been made).
game.Players.PlayerAdded:connect(function(plr)
plr.Chatted:connect(function(message)
print(plr.Name..' just said: '..message)
end)
end)

With this function. You can get the string as the message the player just sent and use it too! . You can both use this function locally or serverside.

be cautious though, as it returns the string from BEFORE reaching the chat filter

@fanofpixels Yeah. It's very important to filter the chat before it could be visualized to the real world.
