Hey, I have a 5.0 Mustang, so I'm not over here very often. I'm looking for a good cable to link an HTC Android phone to an OBD 2 port. Anyone here ever bought one of those?

Consider a Bluetooth dongle:

ELM327 Bluetooth OBD-II Wireless Transceiver Dongle - Free Shipping - DealExtreme

and the Torque application.

Thanks for the reply. That's not a bad price considering it comes with the app. Just to be more specific, I don't need to do any tuning or data logging, just read codes. For that reason a hard cable would be sufficient, and I know I've seen the cables cheaper than that. The only car I would need to do tuning or data logging on is my Mustang, and it isn't obd 2.
