Making the PCB is actually not that difficult. If you would like, I
will post instructions. You will need a drill press and some really
small bits. I used a dremel tool with the drill press attachment.
You also need access to a laser printer. (A photocopier might work okay.)
Everything else you can purchase cheaply at Radio Shack. I'd estimate
that it cost me about $20 to make my first PCB. The time involved is
an hour or two at the most.

Also, I now have a source for the OBDII connector itself for about
$15+s/h. That's a lot cheaper than the $49 price B&B has it for...
I need to update the web page!

Jeff
