Inside the door to prevent the locks being popped from a hook down the seal?

Is it to stop the bonnet release being activated through the grille?

It would definitely make theft of the ECU more difficult. Would normally be surprisingly easy, that wasn't my concern though when I had this shield made.

No but it is to stop a latch being popped with a screw driver.

That's it, rivets under the slam panel. Keeps screwdrivers and dirt out:

Risk of theft was high during the 90s so I didn't mind the inconvenience of drilling a hole through it if my bonnet release cable failed.

That anti-thief device was a smart move. For some un-known reason VW have put a plastic joint in the bonnet pull on the mk3 Caddy which regularly fails unlike the Golf

I'm thinking what obsure item I can find as the next clue.
