A discreet vehicle tracker keeps the device out of the way while helping you review recorded vehicle locations and activity. If you want a permanent installation, a hardwired tracker is a useful starting point.

Choose the setup around your vehicle, power supply, usual routes and access for maintenance. Concealment alone does not ensure a tracker will keep reporting.

What a discreet installation needs

A suitable installation balances secure mounting, reliable power and reception. Enclosed metal spaces and unsuitable mounting positions can affect satellite or mobile signals.

Have a qualified installer confirm the exact device, harness and vehicle requirements before fitting. Follow the instructions supplied for that device rather than generic wire colours or mounting directions from a buying guide.

Concealment is intended to protect the device from casual removal. Be transparent with authorised drivers about vehicle tracking and how the information will be used.

Compare the device options

Hardwired for a permanent setup

The EZYH1 hardwired tracker connects to vehicle power and suits a discreet, permanent fit. Professional installation is arranged and paid for separately.

Ask the installer to confirm compatibility, a suitable power supply, mounting position and normal operation after fitting. A short internal backup battery is not a substitute for the correct main power supply.

Plug-in when removability matters

The EZY01 OBD plug-in tracker connects to a compatible diagnostic port. It is useful when you want a removable setup, but it can also be unplugged.

Check vehicle compatibility, the port position and clearance around the driver’s legs and controls. Decide whether easy removal suits how the vehicle is used.

Rechargeable when permanent power is unsuitable

The S20-Pro asset tracker may suit an asset without a suitable permanent power connection. Confirm the mounting arrangement, reporting needs and access for charging with our team.

Battery life depends on use and conditions. Plan maintenance around the device’s actual operation rather than assuming it can remain unattended indefinitely.

Tracking and immobilisation are separate requirements

The standard tracking setup does not include immobilisation. If you need an additional vehicle-security function, discuss the requirement with our team and a qualified installer before ordering. Availability and suitability must be confirmed for the exact vehicle and configuration.

Check reporting and coverage

Tell us where the vehicle travels and is stored. Standard plans use supported Optus/Vodafone coverage; Telstra options require a quote. No mobile network covers every location.

Ask us to confirm the reporting interval and available alerts for your chosen device. Updates depend on power, satellite reception, mobile coverage and settings. Always check the timestamp of the latest recorded position.

A discreet tracker can provide useful location information, but it does not guarantee theft prevention or recovery. Continue using suitable physical security and insurance.
