wsn03, you are good with where you are. If Bob has you listed, nothing else need be done until he contacts you for payment - he will give you instructions on how to PayPal him.
I have to run out right now, but there is a video from Bob on how to assemble the stuff he sends you and put it into the 3D printed case you are ordering. I'll try to find that video when I'm back.

So I don't need to do anything now Bob has me on his list, all good.
I have ordered the 3d print and the ligher plug, and I'm about to order the Vgate OBDII diagnostic interface - is that it? I don't need to order all the other stuff on his website?

Video is here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qwx9...ature=youtu.be
Since I haven't done it yet, anyone who has could comment if there are any additional tips or tricks. I will mention that it took me a minute to wiggle out the existing ashtray insert to test fit the printed case. Kind of a 'duh' moment, but the insert was in there snuggly

Sorry for taking so long to get on with this - all this electronics stuff scares me! I'd be really happy to swap over someones upgrade Pedestrian Sensors in exchange for them doing this for me 
So far I managed to order the cigar-lighter. I have even figured out the 3D print!!! Still got a long way to go though
Been on the website and there is loads of items - so I got 2 questions
1. Do I buy everything listed there (I know I have to buy the Vgate OBDII diagnostic interface)? I am on Bob's list, so don't know what that means in terms of what I am getting versus all that stuff I don't understand
2. How do I sign up with Bob? I have been added to his list, is there something else I need to do?
Thank you

- Vgate OBD2 reader,
- 3D print (files are downloadable from my website)
- low profile USB charger
- electronics from me
The electronics will come pre-configured, so it'll be "plug and play" (sort of).
For anyone who is wondering what the status is of "round 3":
I'm still waiting for the delivery of the displays,
tracking info shows me that the status is "The item has been processed in the country of destination" since the 26th of November.
It looks to be stuck, so I ordered them again.
Delivery of the re-ordered items might take 4 weeks, so shipping out likely will not take place this year.
