What a GPS tracker does.
A GPS tracker records and transmits a vehicle's location in real time or at set intervals, depending on the unit and SIM or subscription plan. This can be useful for monitoring a work vehicle, keeping track of a personal vehicle or managing a small fleet.
We install the tracker — we do not supply or manage SIM cards, data plans or tracking subscriptions. Those depend on the tracker brand and the plan you choose. We do not claim installation prevents theft or guarantees vehicle recovery.

GPS tracker questions.
- What is a hardwired GPS tracker?
- A hardwired GPS tracker connects to the vehicle's electrical system for a permanent power source. It draws a small amount of current and does not rely on an internal battery. We route the wiring discreetly so the unit is not easily spotted.
- Does the tracker need a SIM card or subscription?
- Most GPS trackers require a SIM card and a data or subscription plan to transmit location data. This depends entirely on the tracker brand and model — we install the unit but do not supply or manage SIM cards or tracking subscriptions.
- Can I use a GPS tracker I have already purchased?
- In many cases, yes. Send us the model details before booking and we can confirm whether we are able to install it, what wiring is involved, and whether any specific placement is possible in your vehicle.
- Will the GPS tracker affect my car's electrics?
- A correctly installed hardwired tracker draws very little current and should not cause electrical issues. We wire it from an appropriate fuse point to minimise any draw on the vehicle.
- How long does GPS tracker installation take?
- A straightforward hardwired installation typically takes one to two hours, depending on the vehicle and how discreetly the unit needs to be placed.
