Does this stick out far from under the dash, do most people feel they need to have a cable to move it out of the way?

The obd 2 unit does not stick out more than about 2-3 inches from under the dash, as on most vehicles, the scanner port is recessed slightly on the right side of the steering wheel under the dash. I have used this with my father's ford expodition while he drives I run the scanner on my lg motion.

I've had it in 3 different cars and so far it hasn't caused any kind issues as far as having enough room...

The suction cup is pliable and a little sticky. I think it may sick to a slightly textured surface. My dash is very slightly textured and mat. I hope I've helped.

We have a Cadillac SRX which has a hump on the dash close to the window. We put it over the hump and it forms to whatever you put it on. Ours is right up by the window and works perfectly. I don't think there is a place it wouldn't work. We tried several places and decided to put it as close to the window as possible. Works great.

Depends on where u wanna put it on. It has 2 wires +and-. you can get power from your fuse, this is the easiest way. Cable is visible but you can make it to not visible by hiding wires under dash or carpet.

No. The control box has 4 wires that are about 3ft. Coming out of it. You have plenty of wire to put two under dash and two under back seat of that's what it is intended for.

It comes with a long cable to install it wherever you'd like. Some people install it behind the glovebox, I have it under the driver's seat.

You still have to use the mounting stand. This just takes it from the window and puts it down on the dash, out of your line of sight.

I mounted mine on the bottom of my steering column just below the steering wheel. Out if the way but easy access for muting etc

i dont think so,mine had to be slightly proud of the console as it is angled,i am able to see part of the side,it does not bother me but would bother some people,nothing a bit of black tape or duct tape wouldnt cover.

Yes, you need to place the small antenna on the dash,I used the hole in the center of the dash board.also you have to find a place to mount the mic . also you need to go to the Nav wed sight to up the nav .

Is it feasible to have the monitor stored in a bin next to the driver's seat and pull it out only when you need it? Then just set it up on the dash just while you are using it. There are not that many times a week when I really need some thing like this and I don't want it cluttering up the dash.

Just to add to the other answers. It is a tight fit in my car, so it doesn't come out up I pull on the cable. But there is enough length to grab it with your thumb and index finger for removal.

There is nothing to prevent it from moving around while you place or remove the phone. It's attached at the top to the vent, but the bottom rests on a couple of ears which sit on the vent or dashboard. it never moves while driving (in my car), but it easily moves when I put the phone in or remove it.

It does not stick out that far. Mine sits right above my radio volume control. I really like it and can turn it towards me using either vertical or horizontal position. For me it is just perfect where it sits.

On one car, I have it in the 8 o'clock position. It's not in the way there. On the other we used the double side tape to put it on the dash

It is not in dash. It has a mount that you install. The unit itself can be removed from the mount and stored in a more secure location.

I supposed you could mount it that way if you want but I prefer to keep it hidden behind the mirror. You can hide the cable by just tucking it between the molding and trim on top of the windshield and along the door panel and under the glove box. You can't even see mine. Good Luck.
