Thank you for the infomation 😊

Re: OBD dummy port Puma ST

It's two modules, one plugs into the OBD which you can put up in the dash out the way the dummy part goes where the orginal was.

Any thoughts on protection of the OBD? I have recently been asking the question in regards a dummy OBD port or re...
