Regarding $130 vs $122 vs $124.95:

Come on guys! At $130 it's still an excellant value.
Most of the devices that just read codes cost more than that, and this unit is a trip computer to boot!

IMHO, it's not worth nickel and diming it at that price. They made a great little product at a very reasonable price, now let them make a little $$$!

"depending on how easy it is to disassemble, i'm thinking of fabbing a better looking faceplate."

Me too - probably wont get around to it for quite a while... I'd be very interested in seeing what you come up with.
