Thanks.
I've downloaded Protune2, read some forum posts and now look forward to loosing 2 small fiddly screws
I took the cover plate with those two fiddly little screws and carefully made a copy of the plate out of Alu. The drilled a hole in the location of the usb receptacle just barely large enough to slip the usb jack through it. Then I plugged in the cable and gently screwed down the new plate with the cable sticking out and once in place J&B Welded it in place. Once dry I took it off and checked for gaps (i was careful to not push it through to the ECU) so once sealed and dry i put it in place and torques the wee little screws down and coiled up the long cable up under the passenger side cockpit dash. Now i never have to mess with those damn little screws again!
