Hi,

I am thinking about getting this, or something very much like it:

https://www.amazon.com/KONNWEI-Automotive-Computer...amp;sr=8-4

I have diagnosed problems with cars by watching the live stream data on my Foxwell while tootling around but it's not that easy to read. These OBD2 scan gauges seem like a coool idea, if I could find one that would work with the VW implementation.

Anybody?

That is pretty cool. Just another thing to distract me while driving. Would be cool to see a full list of parameters it monitors, though I am sure that would be vehicle specific.

People are telling me the build quality on those is poor. Cool concept though.

I have used a different kind that I received as a gift.. The one I have projects an image onto the windshield. Kinda cool, but I took it back out. Too many distractions. If you want it, let me know. I think it is this one:
