Sorry no pic, but it is under the steering wheel just right of the emergency brake. I have my Garmin eco-thingy-ma-jig connected there at all times so I can access some extra digital gauges.

Hi Casper - Do you have the Garmin Mechanic with ecoRoute hd Module? How do you like it and does it give good info? Thanks

It's useful. I received my Eco-Route HD in the mail from ebay during the week my check engine light came on. It is actually the Kenwood version of the Garmin but all the same. Anyways, I accidentally did not tighten my gas cap enough and got the dreaded check engine light. Well I clear the code with the Eco-Route and BAM....never had a check engine light ever since. :chuckle:

When I do check my Garmin gauges, I usually like looking at the coolant temperature gauge to know if my engine is warm enough to drive normally. I also like looking at the battery voltage gauge since I have alot of electrical accessories.

I also like to look at the leaf to try to drive efficiently. It turns red-yellow-green which gives a score of 0-99. BUT lately I have been looking at the real time MPG when I place the garmin screen in detail mode for my particular model in addition to looking at the AVG mpg on the Nissan trip computer. ( not as accurate I know but to get an idea) :laugh:

If your on the fence about buying this, I would get it. All in all, I found it useful. Code clearing, saving gas, and gauges.

ps- It would probably be cheaper to get the iPhone :naughty: or android version.
