KY, only get the original stuff, you don't want warming KY in your car's OBD2 port

Default that thing on the bottom. but i wouldn't nesc. do that. it keeps it in tight and, imo,

prevents some connection issues and data dropping that some people see.

nothing to back that up. just my opinion, but you can push when you're trying to remove to get it out easier.

I was afraid to pull it down when I was helping S40RCE. Didn't wanna break any pins.
