Code Scanner

Does anyone have any suggestions for a code scanner? I don't want to spend a fortune but I don't want to buy junk either. I've found this one for $135 on Amazon. iCarsoft i980. I will be using this on a 2002 E320 and a 2002 C320. Thanks in advance !!!

IMHO, the option I used was the best. Scangauge II is pretty cheap, and you can mount it in the ashtray. They're $170 (maybe can pick one up used). Though with two cars, you'd have to either get two and mount them, or just get an extra cord, and swap it between cars (you could even keep it in the ashtray and swap cars that way, which would be a bit easier). Kind of a PITA, but worth it.

Thanks Tommy. I'll look into that one. I wasn't planning on a permanent install but one never knows...
