vw factory option, parts are still available about £40 iirc
got it on mine, tbh it's a pain having to put the key in to do a quick level check, I guess it depends on wether you have to worry about peeps pratting about with your van

I would imagine most people wouldn't even know it's there.

I'm with the spicy sausage on this one.
I had to show them in the local halfwits type emporium.

yea have been forced to leave it in some unsavory arias on me travels (equivalent to longleat drive through zoo hehe) and if it moved or opened it was on the menu. so yea thinking of making something or better buying one to prevent the mr bean/mini hasp and staple approach.

Surely if you are worried this would do the trick for £2?

I've often thought it would be a good idea to stick a solenoid lock on it and couple it to the central locking. I might get round to it next decade
