Didn't really know where to put this so apologies if it's in the wrong section. I was wondering if anyone else, has had to put up with a smartbox/telematics insurance policy as I have? Fortunately after a year with something constantly watching over me I renewed yesterday for insurance without a "box" but when it comes to removing the box I'm a little lost? Obviously I have no affiliation with the previous company but I'd rather have the peace of mind that it's out my car not transmitting data still so does anyone have any experience in removing it and where I can find it on the car, I've tried under steering wheel, under glove box, in the glove box and behind the instrument cluster and I can't see anything behind the radio......It's a MK5 fiesta again sorry if this is the wrong section, any help would be appreciated!

my lad has one on his fiesta and the fitted it under the steering wheel and above the pedals if that makes sense
he is also changing his insurer next month so i will be removing his box
his old company said they would use the data for research purposes

ask vaughant how bad insurers are at coughing up for "authorised" work, even at a set price. They would be unable to get credit terms anywhere if they wernt so big and the bodyshops so small.

Got Telematics on my work van.
Another bloke thought he'd be clever and took the fuse out that fed it.
Obviously, as it was an active system, they noticed it and bollocked him.
Apparently, the one used on our vans have a SIM card in?!
