Using a OBD2 Connector for my VS

[hillboy89]

Hey there, i recently brought a cheapo obd2 cable from ebay thinking it would suit my Vs. I found out that although they have the obd2 plug they are ALDL obd1 data? Question is, is there any way of making the cable work with some sort of software or even some basic soldering?

What cable did you get?

This isnt the exact one, but similar USB V1.4 ELM327 EOBD-II OBD2 CAN Scan Tool Interface | eBay

Yes that is correct, you want a connector like THIS and THIS Software and then THIS adx for logging, the interface above is OBDII not OBDI
