CEL Code Scanner

Hey, I've searched and couldn't find any recent topics on this. What is everyone using to pull cel codes with? I've got MacBook Pro, so what else do I need to get?

I use one of those cheap bluetooth adapters. It actually works pretty well and with the Torque app it gives tons of info.

This.

I have an iPhone jailbroken to allow things like the dongle for use. I use Dash Commander.

In order to use those.. you need a jailbroken iPhone.

Otherwise you need to get an expensive dongle, like so..
