i saw the bracket near the hood release but there is no obd connection.

maybe this will help my car have 4 MANUAL windows with MANUAL side mirrors i know that is unusual
and maybe because of that i cant find the obd connection

It’s there I promise….if there has been any rough handling of the driver’s side fuse box the plug may have slipped out of it’s mount & behind the fuse box. But it is DEFINITELY there.

Or a previous owner may have removed the 16 pin plug from its mount and relocated it down & to the RIGHT of the driver’s side fuse box-which I have done myself.

See below pictures for what I’m talking about

That cutout in the metal is to the LEFT of the driver’s side fuse box in North American vehicles.

Where I’ve relocated mine (out of the cutout designed for the plug and to the RIGHT of the fuse box.
