OBDII port lock/guard

So I got that brake line recall notice (13/14 Xs). I don't want Mitsu mechs goofing up my English tune so I've been looking for a OBDII port lock. Haven't found anything I was excited about yet so I made this shield in the meantime. It's 8"x1.5" copoly plastic and attaches to existing unused dash holes w/ plastic rivets (I backed it with sticky velcro to prevent any vibes too). There's no way a tech can accidentally access my port now.

Nice!

As soon as they see the exhaust, they ask. I just let them know and they put it on the paperwork.

Porting into the ECU is habit for a lot of tech. Figure this'll help protect my tune.

Got bored in the lab so I made a 2nd one.

I want something that locks up port access.
