Just fitted my stoplok pro (not the elite) and the hasp/arms aren't big enough to fit over the "spokes" of the steering wheel, they're just a little bit too small so i've arranged it where the yellow arm/bar is blocked by the center console and it has extremely limited movement turning the wheel one way. I might just refund it and get the pro elite if it fits over the spokes of the wheel as the arms are apparently bigger. Any chance you can show me how you've got yours setup?

Sorry its not the 'Stoplok' I had that on the XE, but not so good in the F type, its a 'Disklok' it covers the steering wheel and has a stickyout bit I put across the seat to make it difficult to get in or get to the lock as its upside down.

Okay, thanks for the info. My current Stoplok doesn't fit over the "spoke" of the wheel as i'd like but i've arranged it well enough so there's barely any movement when turning right as it hits the center console. You can get some left turn but then it's gonna hit your legs or the seat. It's mostly a visual deterrent and to slow people down if they break in. I'm going to arrange for the Ghost 2 immobiliser to be fitted after payday too so I can have, more or less, complete peace of mind.

Video doorbell/security camera covering the car and good lighting would be a good place to start. I have the Autowatch Ghost 2 installed in my F Type and can thoroughly recommend it. It’s very simple to enter the unlock code using the shift paddles, as long as you remember each time you get in πŸ˜„

Stoplock Pro has just won auto express group test, I managed to pick one up for a good price at the Aldi.
