Thanks for the pic. That’s the one. So another question. When I got the 3x it came with a long usb cable. The new 4 is showing just a 2ft cable and then the ford harness. I’m assuming I will need to supply the long usb? If so you guys have a recommendation on length and brand that works well? I’ll be running it up to headliner and then down driver a piller.

CS told me it comes with a short and a long cable when you select F150.

Will you be integrating the lightning coupler at any point for this model?
The design isn't very conducive to it, so it would have to be a completely different dock. And since Uncle Tony has plenty of the 180-degree couplers in stock, and only 8 of the 90-degree couplers left, it didn't make sense.

Actually, now that I think about it, the 90 couldn 't be integrated, but you could swap the 180-degree coupler from Uncle Tony in with no issues. I'll ask him to send me one so I can make a video.

I need more sleep. Uncle Tony's is Female to Female, and all the parts on the new dock are female to male. Even if it fit, the gender would be wrong.

the dock is just for convenience. Taking it in and out without having to disconnect cables. The only aftermarket item you really need is the Lightning specific coupler with built in resistors.
thanks! will pick one up

I got my Comma 4 last night @Ajzride was a huge help and great resource. It's amazing I'm super happy with it as a first time Comma user.

I have a 2023 Lightning, and I have been going through all of these threads. So does the Comma 4 work now with the Lightning, and is the only thing that you need to purchase the coupler and, of course, the unit itself? When ordering online, it states that it only comes with a 2ft OBD-C cable, but others say it comes with a longer cable. Is there a write-up somewhere or links to everything that needs to be purchased?

I hate to be so wishy washy and back and forth, but I'm still getting caught up on sleep. I had an idea this morning of another way I can get the lighthing coupler to work integrated into the dock. I will test it tonight and let you guys know. We have 8 of the 90s that could be integrated into the dock I think.

The comma comes with a 2ft cable, but if you order the F150 kit, then the Q4 harness comes with the long cable.
