OBD1 Bracket

[DFrosty]

Hello Gents

Might any of you know if this mounting bracket is still available over there? I got the dreaded NLA from both my local dealership and World Impex.

D-oh! Didn't even cross my mind to check with them prior to my post.

But....Just struck out there too.

Contact Joe Marconi (AudiCoupeParts on here) or Jack Dean (Dean16V on Motorgeek), I'm sure one of them will have it. They've broken a few cars that had that bracket.

I couldn't get one for mine. So I just converted to OBDII and have the socket under the rear ashtray. Much better

Hrmmm...I like that idea. Is there a writeup here I can study up on?

[Error404]

I don't think so, not looked to be honest
You need to take the K and L wires (from memory Red/White & Red/Green) from the OBDI eyelets at the fuse board and add a +12v and earth to an OBDII plug. Pretty straight forward

Was going to say S2Central did a how-to [emoji106]

So... where can we get those female OBD2 sockets with the mounting screw holes ?

(I'm guessing S2 Central ran out of his 10 spares long ago...)

BMW has some very nice sockets.
E38 seems to have socket with screw holes:



I have one from E46. It doesn't have screw holes but it holds in with tabs instead and has a cover. Fitted inside glovebox:

Lovely solution.... should have known you would have a tidy idea for this too
