The OBDII adapter was about $20 from ebay.

Now, as I promised, here are a few pics of my set up.

1) I cut another slot in the Nexus 7 case to match the one for the speaker.
2) You need (2) pieces of Velcro (1" x 23").
3) Slide the Velcro thru the Nexus case.
4) Open the cubby door and tighten the Velcro around the lid.
5) Close the lid.
5) Slide the tablet into the case and attach the power supply

I used the Nexus case because it is pliable enough to mold against the cubby door and still hold onto the tablet. The two pictures show the Torque Pro and Dash Command apps running.

Simple but very effective. I just need to route the power from inside the cubby to complete the mod. I used this setup during the 1300 miles of ZdayZ and the tablet did not move at all.
