OBD disabled stickers

[giger]

I've seen reference to some stellar gent producing official looking OBD disabled stickers a while ago (year or two?).

I'm getting my first Beemer and it an attempt to keep it under my possession I was wondering if he was still around, or if anyone had any unused ones? I realise it may not be needed on newer cars (2014 M235i to be exact), but anything I can do to make myself feel better is a good thing!

I'm happy to make a donation towards printing costs etc.

Is said person still around?

There are a few options available on eBay

They are on amazon for £1:89 plus get a disclok (brandname) your spare keyfob should be wrapped in aluminuim foil k and you should buy an RFID signal blocking pouch from Amazon which you place your Keyfob in at night.The latter prevents outside scanners locking on to your keyfob and being able to get in the car

@geiger: Are you also posting the same question on another BMW forum (2014 m235i buyer worried about the OBD thing)? If so, I won't bother duplicating my longer response here. Which is mainly that the M235i is way down the list of stolen cars, with the top 10 dominated by SUVs (X5, Q7, Range Rover, Discovery, Shogun, Nissan X) and 5 Series, stolen to order. Police feedback is that the luxury brands are mainly stolen to order by professional gangs, who watch their targets for some time, and are undeterred by the obvious things like Krooklocks, OBD stickers etc. Looks like just keeping your keys away from casual visitors is the simplest single deterrent.
