    Also, if you're planning on using an Apple device to read OBD-II info, you need to get a WiFi adaptor not a bluetooth one. Apple doesn't like using BT for anything thats not audio - *you're gonna have a bad time*
    Surely an Auto-Polar FIS + Advanced would be much neater and cheaper than having a tablet under your a-pillar?

    Would hate to see what happens to the tablet in an accident...

    I have had a few problems where my was located and staying there. However, i wouldn't say it was much more dangerous given that people stick GPS's to their windows all the time, which are practically the same weight as potential Tablets... You can leave it on the seat next to you and it can still collect data anyway. It just becomes more of a distraction down there.

    Regardless, it's a really cheap way of monitoring your car and you can have a lot of fun with it.

    If you dont know you can also read VAG specific block info using Torque pro, its not extremely easy to setup though and you need a different adapter to the de facto ELM327.

    Alright guys so i have finally gotten around to uploading these photos of my new shoes. I was pretty excited when they were put on.

    So, without further adieu, my 19 inch Mercedes C6319 wheels:







    Pretty damn happy with them

    Got FALKEN 235/35R19 91W PT722 tyres on them.
