I can fully recommend this tracker from ebay at under £28.00, I have three, one as a back up in the Defender, one in my horse trailer and one on my boat accuracy is perfect and does so many things such as texting you if the car is started or moves, its amazing for the price. One of these units is now over three years old and still works perfectly.

Am I being a bit dense here? - I thought the idea of a tracker was to be fitted inconspicuously into a car so it could then send a signal with the vehicle's location if pinched without the thief knowing it is even fitted?

This unit looks bulky & the fact it has two aerials which need to be located in suitable places plus additional wiring & a relay etc.

Seems a lot to hide in a 90/110 given how 'sparse' the interior trim is?

The tracker recommended on eBay is great!!
Very accurate, and many useful features.
Only problem is that now, the misses can see if I come straight home from work, or stop off for a sneeky half on my way home !!! Whistle

I've also bought the TX103B. Has anyone wired the relay? Not sure what to disconnect on a Diesel to immobilze it.

Does the Puma have an inertia switch under the bonnet like the TD5 does ?

If so then it would make sense to wire a relay into the same circuit using a changeover relay. The inertia switch is hooked up to kill the engine in the case of an accident and it should be easy enough to hide a join in the cable to or from that switch that extends it to your relay.

I've used this myself when wiring up an FIA kill switch to TD5s and also used it as one of the circuits disabled by an aftermarket immobiliser. http://www.yorkshireoffroadclub.net/
