Civic Addict was actually working on a OBD-II program for his car. Im not sure how far he has actually gotten on it though.

Im sure he'll chime in shortly. :yes:

*DING*

Yeah I am working on one. Its coming along. Slowly but its getting there. Mine will handle mostly Hondas/Acuras at first. I'm looking to do more than just OBDII with my setup, so its taking me a while to get done.
In the mean time...

I've used that one. Its a decent setup. Runs on just about anything, even Windows 3.1. Includes extended support for FORDs & GMs. Not as much for Honda, but it will read them.

Not used this one, but its supposed to be decent.
