Where do you put your datalogging cables?

[Awdboost]

I was wondering were everyone keeps there cables for dsmlink. I always keep mine plug in and run it in the back to the glove box. I was wondering if there are any people that do it different, I'm always look for a better place to put the cables so they don't rattle. Thanks guys

Pic are welcome

I leave my datalogger cables coiled up in the glovebox just like you, but it doesn't rattle. Of course I'm using TMO Datalogger, not a DSM link.

You could try to coil everything up behind the center console, behind the ECU.

I leave the connector in the obdII port, run it up under the dash behind the center console and then down the center console inside of it so you cant see the wire and it comes out at the back of the console and lays on the floor behind the passenger seat. I just grab it and hook it up to my laptop when im ready.

I run mine from the port then back under the driver seat the into the center console. I just leave it coiled up in there. Although mine is a pocket logger, but same principal.

Thanks guys, thous are some really good places to run the cable. I going to play around a little and see what spot is best for me.

I also just leave my pocketlogger cable in the ODB-II port and run it along side the center console.

When I get my dsmlink/eprom I plan on running the cable under the center console, then putting a port in the bottom armrest under the 2nd cupholder. So I can just have a cable on my labtop to plug into that port. Nice clean install that way, no hanging cables.

Any 1g owners wanna share how your pocketlogger is set up? I'm thinking of having the end of the cable peek out from where the coin tray is, so I can connect the palm there when I need logging.

After the morons that broke into my car cut every cable imagineable just to get stuff out, I don't leave it in the Talon. (the cut the amp remote wire??? Now it's useless even to them..)

I run the TMO cable from the diag socket, under the carpet and soundproofing behind the pedals, then it terminates in a homebuilt switchbox velcroed to the forward tunnel cover on the passenger's side. The switchbox has a USB connector that runs to my ECUView in the gauge pod on the dash and a DB9 with a cable that runs down the passenger's side of the tunnel (under the cover) and comes out beside the passenger's seat. I keep the cable coiled under the passenger seat, and I pulled the locking nuts (because they rattle and piss me off).

Speaking of those forward tunnel covers on the 1G; the driver's side cover is a great place to hide small electronics modules. I have the controllers for my GReddy gauges and the power distribution block for my V1 stuck to mine, and room for more junk if I need it.

That's not a bad idea ziplock. ####..I'm missing my tunnel covers...!
