Bear Lock Question

[Coatesy69]

Hi all.
I'm interested in having a Bear Lock fitted to my T6 DSG and was wondering if anyone who has one fitted could answer a question.
I know it locks the gear lever in place but if you had any gearbox issues which would need taking into a dealer to sort, how would they do it.
Would the installer need to come out and remove it, then replace it again.
Never having seen what is behind the cowling where the key lock is fitted, I am curious.

Regards,

Graham

Typically, the installer or dealer would have a specialized tool or procedure to disable or bypass the Bear Lock temporarily for servicing your gearbox issues, without needing to remove and reinstall it completely.

Good timing. I have been looking at these for my DSG T6.
Keep us posted how you get on.

This looks really interesting, saves messing with vehicle electrics and seems to be like a bollard that you take with you. Realise all the issues re keys on key rings etc but any thoughts anyone or experience of the product? https://theftstop.co.uk/bear-lock/
