Maybe it never arrives. I filed a complaint with the shipping company yesterday, no reply yet.
It is striking when complaining suddenly the package appears out of nowhere. it is now delivered.
Coming Saturday shipment will take place of the remaining 5.

It has been my experience for anything ordered from the "Orient", I order it and forget it. Because it takes so long and the tracking is so poor, I don't recall what I ordered LOL!
I'm living through this experience, at the moment.

Default 3rd round

3rd round details:
- I will only supply the soldered electronics, the USB cable and the button cap.
- The 3D print you can have it printed yourself using MJF or SLS Nylon technique and (have it) painted or stained.
- For example, select a 3D print service from this list (and download the 3D print zip file from my website).
- The ELM327 "Vgate iCar Pro 4.0 bluetooth" you should order yourself (source 1 (UK) source 2 (US) source 3 (DE) source 4 (Ali))
- Ordering a different type of ELM327 device is not recommended.
- The cig power socket you should order yourself, I got these or these. (or get an other low profile one)
- ordering a 2nd one as spare is allowed.
- below in my signature you see the number of available items left.

I am asking €58.50 for the electronics-only device, ex shipping, ex paypal fees.

If you want to be on the 3rd round list, post it here or send me a private message.

I'll send a message to the ones who have showed interest in the 3rd round.

Current confirmed 3rd round list:
WVChris
Bill Mack
Tolly + 1 buttoncap
powxxl
ccuffwv1

The remaining 5 units may be delayed due to this.
In the meantime I re-ordered the displays today and they are due to delivered in 2 to 3 weeks.
If the stuck delivery will arrive, I will use the re-ordered displays for the "3rd round" (and final round).

Folks of the remaining 5 units of the 2nd round which are delayed:

This has been my status since Monday. I'm under the assumption that the Dutch have placed the package on a fluyt sailing vessel and are awaiting favorable winds to cross the Atlantic.

On Sunday nov 8 they learned the package how to swim, on nov 9 they let it go.
You can also try this website for tracking, tracking there is usually more detailed.

The last 5 units of Round 2 are shipped out this morning.
You should have had an email about that with tracking info. If not, check your spam or junk email folder.
Email addresses from your paypal account are used for this.

I purchased wymjym's unit (thanks WJ) and wow is all I can say... Within a matter of a couple of minutes, updating the software as per Bob's posted instructions, the ADU was up and running! I promised some pics so here they are.

Thanks to all - especially Cabrio Bob!

Now, if I only get the persnickety GPS to work (no GPS after replacing antenna!).... ah... the life of a Jag owner!

Just checked the much better tracking link Bob provided, and my spidey sense is I'll have a neat little upgrade in my Jag tomorrow afternoon.

ADU has arrived and is installed.

Components assemble!


Snug as a bug in a rug ...



Ooooh, look! Useful information!



And now, I'm going to go clean that ashtray reservoir. Bleah!

Gracias, @Cabrio Bob for making this very cool utility available for your fellow Jaguar owners worldwide. Much appreciated.
