Bracket for my OBD socket?
Hi folks, can anyone help me out with my OBD socket. It is clearly missing something and is just dangling in the breeze as the slot it goes into is longer than the socket itself. I suspect I need a bracket of some kind, but I couldn’t find anything on line.

There is a brackets which mounts in the hole, fixed in place by a screw through the hole you can see. The bracket adapts down the hole to take the OBD socket.

Unfortunately I don't think it's available separately.

Cheers Martin. I’ll have a look around and if I can’t find one, I think there will be some sort of high end bodge coming on 😄

Good shout Ianh. I did call Silverlake in Hampshire a little while ago about something else, but they had nothing at that time. I’ll give them another call tomorrow.

I took mine out so I could hide the OBD socket as another security measure (get an OBD extension from ebay to place it somewhere else. 2009 Defender 90 CSW 2.4 TDCI.
