I currently have an OBDLink CX plugged into my OBD port for use with the A Better Route Planner (ABRP) app.

If install a C4, will the OBDLink CX have to be removed from the OBD port?

ODB2 is optional for F150. It is only there to keep the device powered between drives. The IPMA provides power when the truck is started. If you want power between drives, you can use an ODB2 port splitter.

No, You do not HAVE to use the OBD port for the C4 if you don't want to.

I'm about to pull the trigger on a C4 and currently have a FitCam. How and where did you relocate it?
I have the larger Comma C3x with an @Ajzride sliding dock with a FitCamX. I have the C3x dock mounted below the FitCamX so that it blocks the view of the hood in the FitCamX. The C4 would work just as well in the same position I would imagine. With the Comma screens you see "through" the Comma so it isn't really blocking anything.

You don't really see through the C4 though. The screen is super tiny.

I've volunteered multiple time to help design and 3D print a relocation bracket for the FitCamX. No one has taken me up on it yet.

I would be very interested in a FitCamX relocation bracket to properly position the C4. I don't know how I missed your previous offers. Hopefully, others will speak up as well.

How would an interested party take you up on your offer to help design and 3D print a relocation bracket for the FitCamX?

I'd like to incorporate a slide mount for the C4 with the FitCam relocation bracket.

FYI...I have zero 3D print ability.

Just out of curiosity... Is it the ODB or the IPMA connection that messes up the bus and causes all the start up errors on the lightning?

I'd be interested in a relocation bracket for the FitCamX/C3x as well. I was planning to move the FitCamX to one side and use some VSB tape to secure it so that I could move the C3x up higher, but a nice bracket would be preferable for sure.

Haven't done the VSB tape yet because I'm waiting for warmer weather for the curing of the VSB.

I have a very ugly tinkercad monstrosity I threw together from other peoples brackets they have uploaded. I just put together something on MakerWorld with proper credit given to others, just waiting for it get uploaded/approved. I can come back and share the link when it's up, but I will try to attach the STL here.
