    I've just bought a 19 plate 330i. Can anyone recommend a good quality and effective faraday pouch for the keys? I have heard various reports about quality and effectiveness, and would like to hear other people's experiences

    I’ve had two of these since 2020, works perfectly if you put the key in the inner pouch.
    I’ve taken this right up to the car and pressed the button, nothing happens, so proves the blocker works.

    Thanks, Wynne71. Looks like a well reviewed piece of kit. Reasonably priced too. I think that I'll go with that

    We bought the Ananta faraday box from Amazon, £24.97 and comes with a pouch included, it does the job perfectly. We have several sets of keys so a box was the best option.

    Thanks, Jaycee. Seems like a Faraday pouch or box is the way forward with all the vehicle theft that is about

    I’m thinking of getting one of these now as JLR stuff seems to go missing quite often, more so Rangeys but Discos have been known to go too. I’d like a faraday wall key box if one such exists.

    It was an ex-Police colleague of mine (and Disco owner) who was alerted by some of his friends still in the Police that JLR vehicles were a particular target for this kind of theft at the moment. Found a wall-mounted version at the following link from Connected Essentials, but currently out of stock.

    That looks great, I'll have a poke about and see if I can find anything similar
