Default Installing an Origin B2

I gave into temptation and bought an Origin B2 and received it this morning, upon opening the box there are lots of bits but it looks fairly easy to install, still not happy there is no Mac software and why are they still using a serial plug Not a problem though as I have access to a Windoze box.

Big Fecker,

I have mine mounted on my air vent. I used the black cable ties that secured the cables. Cheap as chips but very effective. Doesn't bounce around at all.

Yeh, me too, have mounted mine on the air vent under my left hand - not too thrilled at the way its been done but as long as I dont hit too many of Devon's potholes in the country lanes it stays secure. And the slot in the centre console hides the unit when I'm parked up - perfect!

looks like the way to go...does the wire feed into the air vent? If so do you need to take the vent apart and feed it through somehow?

i used the double sided to stick it to the underneath of the top flap on the right hand vent, so that if i need to remove it it wont show

I have small fingers so not too much of a problems for me. Feed it through and pull the other end back. Use a pair of tweezers or small pliers to help.

You can tighten it up very easily if it becomes loose.
