The software is called Vehicle Explorer and comes with the interface.
You need either a single combo PWM (usable only with Ford cars) or a double combo PWM-ISO (usable with Ford and other European cars).

Your choice of one of three possible OBDII gateways:
ISO - for European, Asian, Chrysler
VPW - for General Motors
PWM - for Ford

Is this the one I want? (the PWM one)

Andy,
Have a think if you might want to use the lead with lesser cars. If so, it might make sense to get one of the combi options for a few dollars ($20-ish) more.
