The only reason I mention these Tech2 Clam-shell Case selections and include the links to this thing is because I DO like having the OEM one that came with my Bosch Vetronix Tech2 to encompass the entirety of the CANDi, Cables, Discs and all of the smaller attachments included within the ancillary hardware. Having it has kept me straight about itemizing everything that either gets taken out of... or needs to go right back into the damned thing when I’ve finished using this rare equipment.

Besides... as clumsy as I am with having to walk around with a cane… tripping over anything as important as THIS stuff sitting on the floor inside the house with the gear all stuffed inside of a Loose Carry Bag and then accidentally crushing the screen on my Tech2 would be maddening. But whenever using this case and its contents... I don’t have to give it a second thought whenever I put it on or behind the front seat of my truck. So while it is not an absolutely essential component for your “Tech2 Rigging”... considering that a GM OEM Tech2 Kit costs around $4.000.00... this idea of protecting your own investment with such added protection and convenience seems to make perfect sense… Here you go:

Yeesh...if the *cheap* one is $130, I don't even want to click on the other link :sadcry:

Thinking I'll go with something waterproof & nondescript. But a little better constructed than the cardboard box mine's in right now....lol.

Not to "Add Insult...To Injury..." But as an FYI to make regular checks over on eBay in the hope you mentioned of eventually getting one of THESE... Yesterday... Some ostensibly "Lucky Dude" over in Sioux Falls, South Dakota, USA managed to seriously Over-Pay to get THIS Item.

Troubling as it is to even bring up this matter... it seems worth mentioning since the Amazon Offer here in Post #1 of this Thread has long since disappeared... So...Checking Out eBay -=Almost Daily=- may eventually prove to be better for you in the future. While I really don't begrudge this Dude in SF, SD for making this Rare Acquisition... I would rather that it would have become YOURS. :>(

Wowwww, What a price!!! Idon't know if I want to pay that much. It is not worth it I think (including shipment). For me, in the Netherlands, I also must pay import duties. Then it will be over $ 200 USD for just the case. I check Ebay very oft, but did not see this, unfortunately. The case is in good condition for what I can see. I hope to find one someday, in good condition. Too bad they don't supply it new anymore. Hopefully they will come back. Thank you for letting me know.

Without making any excuses for the aforesaid exorbitant price being placed upon an OEM Blow Molded Tech 2 Carry Case... Consider that even now... "Boutique" Tech 2 Starter Kits are being marketed to Chevrolet Corvette Owners to the tune of just under $4,000.00 to service arguably, the ONLY True Production American Sports Car manufactured between the years of 1997 -2013 ...and very well supported by the Factory GM Bosch Vetronix Tech 2 System:

comme ça...

So anyone lucky enough to obtain at least the "GYMKO" Tech 2 Scan Tool with the PCMCIA Card bearing the Last Update as Version 33.004 (Final Release Date of August 8, 2013) along with the VCI Module, the DLC Adapters with Power Cables and the CANdi Module along with the means to Carry and Protect this Investment for somewhere in the range of $500.00 over on eBay ... will be very well pleased, indeed. :>) But, for some strange reason... lately... their Prices have been going UP...

I finally managed to get an used Tech2 case. It was like new. Unfortunately had to pay a lot for it, but it was the only way to get one. It's only missing the Vetronix sticker on the outside. Does someone has this or know where to buy a sticker?

Scale that specific "VETRONIX" portion of your image up in your Graphics Application... then Laser Print it to the size needed to fit within the Bosch Vetronix Plastic Case Top Recessed Insert Point.

Then, cut the outline leaving a "Holding Tab" and then coat the back side of the Vetronix Label with a Quick Drying Contact Cement Adhesive and after inserting it carefully onto the Case, apply layers of clear, durable Vinyl or Polyethylene Tape.

Finally, carefully dress up the label perimeter removing that "Holding Tab" with an Xacto Razor Knife... and "Bob's Your Uncle..."

Alternatively... You can try using THESE Images instead...
