Advise on how to isolate the OBD port

Howdy, new here, good to be here too đź‘Ť

Well I have jumped from a 2021 Defender X to a D4. Some may say I’m mad but no regrets yet.

I’m thinking about security, one I could use some help with, for security, is anyone able to advise how I go about isolating the OBD? had a Google around but got a bit lost. I thought there might be a basic kit out there. I’d prefer to isolate than relocate but I guess that’s an option.

Many thanks
Steve

Move the real one, fit a fake ... and add some mechanical protection to the fake so it looks more convincing. .

What holds the original in place?- I’ve tried numerous times to move it but just can’t see how it is held in place. It can when others can't,
It will when others won't,
It goes where others don't.
