I installed a ScanGauge 2 OBD tool, simple as pie... (is pie easy to make? Mmmm, pie).
One screw by the kick panel and yank, then you have this access to the steering column.
And here is the OBD 2 port in a 1999 100 series. It's center of the pic with the bundle of stereo wires above it, just inboard and above the gas pedal. This thing is plug and play, it was nice to get something done in 20 minutes without hassle.
Pop our the lower dash cluster panel and route your CAT5 cable through. I will mount mine up higher near the rear view down the road but for now this was easy and got me up and running.
I'm always on the hunt for new fasteners, this stuff is some of the best I have come across... its like Velcro on steroids. I used it to mount the gauge to the steering wheel housing. It's rock solid and doesn't leave a residue after being left on any surface. Pretty awesome stuff.
Final Result:
