Re: OBD socket
Unfortunately, the fuse location seems to vary, depending on the age of your car. On my 52-plate, its F4 in the engine fusebox, but Haynes, (which I think is based on earlier D9 's), shows F14, (which mjb's V-reg coupe was too).
Worth checking those 2 - it's always a 10A mini-fuse AFAIK

Re: OBD socket
I would caution against repeatedly saying "Doggy" in front of the mirror, as your intent may well be misinterpreted with potentially awkward results.
