Has anyone tried using the 'Blendmount' to install their Scangauge II above the rearview mirror? It looks like a pretty good idea, just not sure if it'll fit since there's not much clearance between the mirror and windshield. Their website doesn't say what vehicles it works with, so I'm curious if any Yarii owners have tried this.

Was going to but I like you believe there will be a fitment issue. I am working on some ideas now, none of which include that.

Anyone have a problem with the Scangauge saying 'Connecting...' then turning off after about a minute without giving any data? I tried all the troubleshooting FAQs in the manual, but none seem to get it working. Weird thing is, it was working fine for a week or so, until today.

Nice job...looks professional! How did you run the wiring?

I got one 2 days ago and just ran it around and under the right side of the steering column. It tucks right into a seam along that side and just stays in place (pretty well). It rests on top of the steering column and when I park it I just slide it into the left glove box.

I just tuck the wire under the edge of the roof panel then removed the A pillar cover ,and then under the dash. 5 minute job.

That's were I leave mine. Just pop open the drivers glove box while crusing when wanna have a peak. Leaving it up when wanna actively watch it dont bother me. And i like that i dont need to Permanently mount it anywhere inside (so great to have that glove box there!!)

I copy/pasted the trouble codes for Toyota and put it on one page.
Feel free to print it out and store it in your glovebox in case you need to reference it.

Scangauge II Location

I mounted mine in the drivers glove box also. I drilled a 1/2" hole in the back wall and fed the wire through and velcroed the gauge to the top wall.
