Default GT4RS - Catalyst setup recommendations

Recently got my 4RS and have tracked it for 2 days so far. Looking to purchase Catalyst to be able to review what I'm doing and see how I can improve.

Trying to research some items but haven't been able to find it.

1) Does the 4RS have an option to connect OBD2 to collect data? If so can anyone share what kind of data can be collected?

2) For mounting the camera is it safe on the windshield or should I mount it on the bar behind the seats? If I mount the camera on the windshield how do you run the wire down to the Catalyst unit?

3) I plan to order the Anima 1" ball mount. Plan to mount the Catalyst case on it. Any other suggestions to look at that maybe better?

If there are any videos you recommend me watching on the setup please share. Thank you.

1/ The Garmin does not integrate with the vehicle. No OBD2 data used or needed. See here.

2/ The camera needs to be on the windshield. Garmin supplies clips to secure the wire from the camera around the edge of the windshield down to wherever you mount the unit.

3/ The mounts that come with the Garmin are pretty good. I use the suction cup on the windshield for temporary mounting. I use the hard mount they supply attached to dash as a more permanent solution.

That's a good idea!
