    Going to download scanner software for the laptop and need a OBDII to USB cable. A cable is a cable right, doesn't matter what kind? Would this work?
    OBD2 OBD II Diagnostic USB Cable KKL409.1 VAG-COM 409 (SZC584) - US$ 19.99
    1998 GP GT - Topswap - Ported M90 - N* - 4" FWI - Poly Mounts - 3" DP - 180 Tstat - Alt. Rewire - 3.29 gearing - Full Exhaust - Custom Tune

    Found the same thing on ebay for like 20 bucks. I'm sure the software they send with it is **** but I'll be using my own software anyway.
