Bluetooth obd2 dongle falling off
I bought a Bluetooth dongle to hook up to a Garmin and my phone recently. I've noticed it will disconnect and usually fall at my feet. Anyone have this issue and come up with a solution other than rubber bands? Not only is it quasi dangerous, it ruins the flow of data.

Does this hook to the DTC port? If so, take velcro and only use 1 side. Stick it inside the plug you are pushing on to the DTC terminal. The extra thickness might be enough to keep the plug on to the DTC connector.
