TOpic says it all, is the 97 Civic OBDI or OBDII. I was under the impression that all cars built after 96 had to be OBDII, but I heard Honda was still OBDI?

OBDIIa

I think all cars were obdII then, some were obdII earlier also.

all above 96 is correct

What's the best way to check codes then? an OBDII scanner obviously, but is there a certain, better version for Hondas (akin to the VAG-COM that the VW guys use, which is a fantasic unit, able to program so many interesting features!)

As a side note, are their any OBDII cables that would interface with either a laptop or a PDA?
