Default Scangauge for FRS

Heard alot of good things about scangauges and like the idea of water and oil temps without gauge pods and the like.
Couple of questions;

Are they permanantly plugged into the OBD port?(if so is it tidy?)

Where has everyone mounted theirs?

Easy to use?

Any other advice welcome,

Cheers

Get onto the RSOC Focus section of the forum. Loads of threads, pics and people on there who make custom mounts to hold the gauge in various places in the interior.

The OBD port is permenantly plugged in, but you can feed the cable behind the dash and through the little hole above the port, you can hardly see it

Your ISP (Internet Service Provider) such as BT, Virgin, AOL, etc, surely issued you with an email account when you signed up to your service so you'd need to use that as the email address to register on
