VTT OBD-Lock ODB Port Locking Tool (Non-GM Model) Version 2

My car was stolen (and recovered) a few months ago and it is equipped a push button start. I didn't realize how easy it is to clone the key fob for these cars and always kept my fobs in a Faraday box, figuring that I was safe from a potential thief. Its wasn't until I got my car back that I was told that thieves can also clone the fobs using the OBD II port.I looked at others before buying this one - it's pricey for sure, but worth it for the peace of mind as far as I'm concerned. I have a standard port on my car and it's mounted under the dash and not enclosed. I found installation easy, although at first it seemed a bit mysterious as to how this thing stays in place. Once you start trying to put it on it becomes pretty apparent though. Take note that if you have the type of port connector that is enclosed this may not fit.What I like about this lock is that it's metal and the fact that it uses an actual key, not just an allen key like a lot of others use. Anyone can get an allen key of the correct size but this is a unique key and not all of the locks come keyed the same - so it would be very difficult for someone to get a hold of the key.This lock completely encloses and protects the OBD II port and I can see no way to remove it without destroying the port connector, which, of course, would render the port useless anyway. I had no idea that there was such a thing as an OBD port lock and I'm glad I found this one. Highly recommended.

A good quality OBD2 port lock made of billet aluminum that is anodized in red. I see some plastic made OBD port locks and would say to stay away from those. Some are even poorly 3D printed. This is one of the better ones out there. These have custom cut security screws that use a security bit to install and remove. Unlike typical security screws that use security bits that be bought at the local hardware store to use to unscrew, you cannot easily buy this custom security bit anywhere. It's good that the security screws change after so many sets of the locks are created. This can make sure that it's less likely for two people to have the same security bit for their lock. Someone won't be able to buy a lock and have a security bit that can unlock most of the locks.Like all locks, including the locks on the doors of your house, they are not undefeatable. With the right tools and enough time, anything can be defeated. The aim is to layer your security to make it harder or take more time for a bad actor.They are quite easy and fast to install. It even fits in recessed OBD ports. Just be careful when installing and removing so that you don't strip the threads or damage the nice anodized finish. The lock is made of aluminum so the threads can be stripped if they aren't lined up properly.They are on the pricey side, but not as expensive as another good OBD port lock I have.We asked VTT to send us their OBD lock to review. They sent one for free, we paid the import fees. See the video for more info on it.

Perfect fit for my 2014 Infiniti and super easy to install. Used the included tool to separate the two halves, held the thinner piece on the raised plastic of the OBD, put the larger piece on, while holding the pieces together lightly threaded the bolts on finger tight, and then used the tool to finish the job. :)

If you tighten the screws too much you can strip the teeth in the key and won't be able to remove screws! I had to file down the mouth of the key to get the teeth to grip again and remove the screws. Otherwise good product worth 5 stars. Works on my 2024 Silverado Turbomax RST.

I had previously bought a cheaper obd port lock here on Amazon, but the quality was just not there. However, this lock definitely has the quality I was looking for. The build quality of both the lock and tools are top notch. Even the packaging was made of high quality. It's more expensive than the others you'll find here but its definitely worth it when compared to the cheaper options.

Installation is pretty easy and looks pretty good. It would be extremely difficult to remove it without damaging the port.

Fit my 2021 RAM 1500 perfectly. Total install time maybe 5 minutes. Good deterrent!

Easy to install, high quality metal. The profit margin on these is probably insane, but a small price to pay to still have your car.
