Hi, I'm taking delivery of a nearly new 75 coupe this week and I'm keen to get the Ghost II fitted. However, it doesn't look like it is compatible according to the autowatch site. Has anybody had it fitted in a car newer than a 2022? Also, I've seen some posts about getting the OBD 2 port secured but also seen other posts saying it's no longer necessary. Is it still necessary? Somebody close by just had their F-Pace nicked off the drive so I'm a bit worried! Thanks in advance for your help.
 
I had a similar problem last year where the local installer said a car I’d purchased wasn’t compatible. I pointed to a you tube where it was installed by another agent and Autowatch then updated their site. Seems they are a bit lax on keeping lesser known cars listed.
 
I had a conversation about OBD security with a company who install Ghosts. I was told it wasn't necessary as hacking the OBD port would do nothing if a Ghost was installed.

All that electronic stuff is a mystery to me so I didn't question it any further.

I also thought I had previously read that the f type software had been updated to remove the risk of obd2 theft. But reading again it could have been an update to just remove the programming of keys via obd2 and doesn't totally remove the theft opportunities?

Therefore also keen to hear the answer to this
