A professionally fitted tracker is more than a device hidden inside a vehicle. The installer must confirm suitability, protect the vehicle's electrical systems, test communication and explain what happens after activation.

Before the appointment
Confirm the vehicle make, model and year, the exact tracking product, monitoring subscription and any insurer conditions. Ask whether the fitting provider can issue the paperwork your insurer requires.
During fitting
A trained installer selects an appropriate discreet location, uses suitable electrical connections and protects wiring and trim. Specific locations vary by vehicle and should not be publicly disclosed for security reasons.
Activation and handover
The system should be activated, tested and demonstrated. Check app access, contact details, emergency procedures, subscription terms and the documentation supplied.
Aftercare
Keep your monitoring account details current and report vehicle or battery changes that may affect the system. Follow the provider's testing guidance.
Important: Product certification and insurer requirements can change. Confirm the exact system and policy terms before purchasing or arranging fitting.
