Scan Gauge II & Exhaust Tip Installs Done
Received my Scan Gauge II earlier this week and did the install on Thursday.
Wife rolls her eyes at why we need it, but she did like how the installation turned out. In other words, you can't even see it under normal conditions. I mounted it inside the driver's glovebox, with the cable routed through a hole in the back wall of the box (bottom of back wall about 3.5" from left side wall). To use it I just raise the glovebox door and the door cuts any glare and also shields if from direct sunlight - as the instructions suggest. I had to remove the small panel on the bottom of the dash, as well as the panel below the steering wheel (to allow light, and vision with a mirror, way up under the dash). The Scan Gauge had it's signal within 15 seconds and has worked flawlessly so far. I found that the Turquoise background color matches very well with the Yaris instrument panel. Also, Mfg has done a very good job on the connector design, like how the cable exits the OBD II plug from the side. It made for a very clean install. The extra cable is coiled with a couple of zip-ties and lays on the top side of the under-dash cover. The Yaris Exhaust Tip (from my Toyota Dealer) really looks great - wife even approved of it, which surprised me. Mounts with a radiator hose type screw clamp.
