Disclosed herein is an apparatus, which physically secures an Electronic Control Module (ECM) to the chassis frame of the engine block of a diesel vehicle's engine, such as the 12.7 Liter or the 14 Liter Series 60 Detroit Diesel Engines, using a heavy, lockable bracket that prevents the removal of the ECM from the diesel engine it controls. The most preferred embodiments comprise a diagonal cross beam with mounting cylinders on each end and studded mounting bolts, which allow the device to be secured to an engine block and to surround and secure the ECM against theft. Another embodiment comprises two inwardly-facing parallel L-beams, which comprise mounting cylinders, joined by a flat cross beam and studded mounting bolts, which allow the device to be secured to an engine block and to surround and secure the ECM against theft.

An assembly includes a sensor module having an external surface configured to receive a seal and defining a perimeter. The assembly includes a plurality of sensors supported by the sensor module. The assembly includes a lock movable between a locked state and an unlocked state and supported by the sensor module within the perimeter. A computer is supported by the sensor module and is programmed to actuate the lock.

A chain retention device includes a track member configured to be mounted on an external surface of a vehicle. The track member includes at least two guide surfaces which extend along the track member and a first set of rollers mounted on the track member between the at least two guide surfaces. The chain retention device also includes an elongated arm including a second set of rollers and one or more chain support surfaces. The elongated arm is positioned between the at least two guide surfaces such that the second set of rollers is in contact with the track member, and the first set of rollers is in contact with the elongated arm.

A disclosed trailer hitch device includes an upper member to restrain the movement of the trailer hitch and a lower member to connect to the upper member and to connect to a vehicle. The upper member is rotatably connected to the lower member. The upper member is substantially U-shaped. The lower member is also substantially U-shaped and substantially symmetrical to the upper member. The upper and lower members include a respective side section, a respective arm section and a respective connecting plate configured to restrain the upper member from rotating with respect to the lower member. The upper connecting plate is connected to the lower connecting plate with a fastening device. A single component step washer includes a flanging washer concentric with a collar washer, the flanging washer comprising a ball mounting surface. The collar washer is configured to fit rotatably inside the hitching aperture of the lower member.

An assembly includes a sensor module having an external surface configured to receive a seal and defining a perimeter. The assembly includes a plurality of sensors supported by the sensor module. The assembly includes a lock movable between a locked state and an unlocked state and supported by the sensor module within the perimeter. A computer is supported by the sensor module and is programmed to actuate the lock.

An insert for a vehicle console is provided. The insert includes a frame having first and second opposing retention flanges, each first retention flange being hingedly supported from the frame, such that each retention flange is capable of rotating away from the frame. A support strut is also provided for restraining the retention flanges from pivoting away from a position extending beyond the access opening of said vehicle console. Removal of a lockable lid connected with the frame becomes almost impossible without total destruction of the vehicle console.

A chain retention device includes a track member configured to be mounted on an external surface of a vehicle. The track member includes at least two guide surfaces which extend along the track member and a first set of rollers mounted on the track member between the at least two guide surfaces. The chain retention device also includes an elongated arm including a second set of rollers and one or more chain support surfaces.
