    Hi I just got my new 2021 SR5 4Runner, and naturally I want to do a little customization.
    (Light, Windows, Dings, etc). I know I can use "Carista" but I am familiar with "Techstream"
    and think it has more to offer.

    Does anybody have any recommendation or personnel experience which Bluetooth OBD2 will work with Techstream?

    If "Techstream" will ONLY worked cabled, then maybe a little help picking one of the many at "ebay"and "Amazon" as well a which version of "Techstream" to use? (and where to download)

    ANY help on this matter would be greatly appreciated.

    Thanks in advance.

    Afaik, it only works with wired. If it works with bt or WiFi, I would also like to know. I use a WiFi ob2 plug for my bmw but it’s really slow.

    From another post on another forum, I believe this is the cable:
    https://www.ebay.com/itm/265057592363

    That post also includes a link to techstream and how to set it up using virtual box.

    I'm just learning about this, so the sum of all my knowledge is the above.
