I understand.

Hopefully you get your head unit sorted out ok. Have you checked the fuses?

Yup. I pulled it apart to check the fuse behind the unit and the power connections. I've got +12V, IGN, and fuse is fine. Unit still dead with no blinky red light. The shop says this stuff is over their head and they want me to get a professional opinion from a car audio shop to prove that interior cleaning damaged the unit.

Guess being a Computer/Electrical engineer isn't enough to convince them. :P

I don't know, I don't use iThings in general, usually. A google search might tell you. For Android I prefer the bluetooth OBD-II dongle from Kiwi. I think iThing people tend to use the Wifi version because of some Bluetooth software issue Apples has about generic data protocols. No idea what app they use with it.

Just installed this 2 weeks ago. Absolutely love it! You can feel the heat pouring out of the car when it's stopped. It probably helps my CAI's the most from heat soak. Beyond that it looks bad *** IMHO

Looks sweet man! You should add some more black to the mix, door handles, mirrors and maybe the rear wing to balance it out.
