As cheshired5 says above, USB extension cables are cheaply available but do not use/buy one that includes a signal booster as it increases the noise in the signal which can lead to the signal itself being partially scrambled so you don't get the correct response from the various sensors.

@Cheshired5, do you know if anyone has used VIDA/DICE with Raspberry? i am thinking about hooking it up in the car for other utilities, and if i can run VIDA on the raspberry that would be ideal!

No that's a new one on me and not something I would get involved with.
I deal with bread and butter, meat and potato installations and have no appetite for Raspberry Pi.

Yes the already set up laptop and Dice package for £250 means that from turning on the laptop, you're reading your car within a few minutes.

Another happy (repeat) customer here. I bought one of Simon's units years ago for use with a P2 V70 I had then, but let the unit go with the car when I sold it.

Bought a new one from Simon recently for use with my P3 V70. Really easy to setup following his excellent step by step install video and works as intended. Excellent service again and a recommended trustworthy seller to do business with!

Cheers
Stu
