I know it's in the car somewhere because the emissions testers found it.

Short of standing on my head, I've looked around under the dash and haven't
found it. I read someplace where it was inside a little panel with a cover
but all I've seen in there so far are fuses (I even checked the owners manual
but it's not listed in the index).

So, where is my OBDII port?  (on my econoline it's right in the open under
the dash, i've been using a scangauge II in the econoline for a year or
more but wanted to try it out in the Focus)

You'll have to get your head down to see under the panel, but it is at the
driver's knees, a couple inches behind the panel IIRC. I also recall having
to move some sort of cover....

Thanks, yes, I found it earlier this afternoon. The plastic cover actually
sort of snaps back over the scangaugeII cable connector. Hopefully I won't
knock it out getting in and out... interesting to watch what it claims is
the mpg's...
