What does the plug look like ? If it looks similar to the OBDII one I would 'risk it' if it was me. If it doesn't work at all then punt it on ebay - they seem to hold value reasonably well or you can use it on another car.

Although I doubted this (and started a thread about it somewhere) I got one anyway for other gauges like temp, MAP etc. On the first tank (i.e. pre-calibration) it was way under the on board measurement for MPG in all instances - setup for the under-endowed US gallon I assume
Now after 1 calibration tank mine is more or less matching the on-board to within 10% average MPG. It is usually pessimistic in comparison but then again the built in one usually paints an overly rosy picture - and of course has no facility to apply calibration corrections which the SG2 does at each fill-up.
One big advantage of the SG2 is having AVG and instant MPG always visible. Simple technique is to learn how to keep instant over average in different situations - hills, motorways, city driving etc. It paid for itself on 3 tanks in my car - Diesel is
that expensive in the UK
Mine is the PD ASZ engine (130), I set it to Diesel 1 fuel type.
