Default Re: ScanGauge with NAH?

No sweat. I'll try to take a pic this weekend, but I'll have to find the camera first. The OBD2 connector is under the steering wheel but down near the bottom of the plastic (towards your feet). I put the cable thru behind the plastic and then out thru where the steering column comes out, and wrapped around the steering column, and velcroed on top of the steering column. This keeps the cable mostly out of view, and enables easy viewing just below the line of sight of the bar graph.

The bar graph (instantaneous mpg) is useful when using a ScanGauge if you put the ScanGauge on "averageMPG". I've got the base model, so I don't have any access to any other computer thingies other than that. For driving around town, I mostly use the "averageMPG" for the trip, or what's called "Current". For highway driving, I've been displaying some of the gauges, mostly watching the "IGN", to try to find the "Super Highway Mode" as discussed on CleanMPG.com.
