What’s included with our GPS tracker installation
We supply and install insurance-recognised GPS tracking systems that are designed to support stolen vehicle tracking and recovery. Also, we help you choose a tracker level that matches your insurer’s wording and your usage, whether that means daily commuting, business mileage, or longer trips.
- Approved tracker supply: Thatcham-approved options where applicable, selected to suit the Kia EV6 GT and your insurer’s requirements.
- Secure Control Centre support: Monitoring and response processes that can assist with locating the vehicle if it is reported stolen.
- Driver recognition (S5 where applicable): A driver ID tag can help the system confirm authorised use, depending on the tracker model.
- Optional immobilisation (only where approved): Some systems support immobilisation; however, activation is controlled through the Secure Control Centre and may require police involvement, depending on the provider’s rules.
- Documentation and handover: We provide the information you need for subscription activation, certification (if applicable), and day-to-day use.
Although tracking can improve visibility and support recovery, it does not prevent theft on its own. Therefore, it should be viewed as one part of a wider security approach.
Thatcham & insurance guidance (S5 vs S7)
If you’re asking “Do I need a GPS tracker for insurance?”, the answer depends on your policy wording and the vehicle’s risk profile. However, many UK insurers recognise Thatcham-approved tracking, and some policies specify a category such as S5 or S7. Because requirements vary, we recommend you check your schedule or ask your insurer what category they require before booking.
- Thatcham S7: A tracked system designed to support stolen vehicle location and recovery via a Secure Control Centre. It typically focuses on the vehicle’s movement and location reporting.
- Thatcham S5: Builds on S7 by adding driver recognition (for example, a driver ID tag). Therefore, it can provide an additional layer of confirmation that the vehicle is being used by an authorised driver, depending on the system.
Insurers set their own acceptance criteria, and approval can depend on the tracker brand, subscription status, and correct installation. Consequently, we can help you select an appropriate option, but we cannot guarantee insurer acceptance or any premium change.
UK security notes for Kia EV6 GT
UK theft trend reporting for 2023 indicates the Kia EV6 (the underlying model line for Kia EV6 GT) appeared among the top 20 most-stolen EVs, with 91 thefts recorded in that year in DVLA data compiled by a UK leasing provider and reported in the motor trade press. Additionally, UK media has reported that Kia and Hyundai EVs, including the EV6, have faced ongoing unauthorised access risks linked to keyless systems, and manufacturers have introduced updates and optional security patches in response. However, year-by-year detail for the Kia EV6 GT specifically is not consistently published in public datasets, so insurers may apply requirements based on the broader EV6 risk profile and policy criteria rather than the performance derivative alone.
Tracking & recovery support (new installs and existing systems)
If your Kia EV6 GT already has a tracker, we can often assess whether it is active, correctly subscribed, and suitable for your insurer’s current requirements. Alternatively, we can install a new hard-wired GPS tracker and help you understand the activation steps required by the monitoring provider. For additional background on local tracker options and services, you can also visit Vehicle Trackers Coventry.
Because recovery depends on timely reporting and an active subscription, we encourage you to keep your contact details up to date with the Secure Control Centre. Moreover, you should store the provider’s emergency number in your phone so you can act quickly if needed.
Why professional GPS tracker installation matters for Kia EV6 GT
Modern EVs can be sensitive to power management and networked vehicle systems, so professional installation helps reduce the risk of faults, warning lights, or intermittent tracker performance. Therefore, we install with care, verify stable operation, and keep the finish tidy. If you need a Kia EV6 GT insurance approved tracker that is installed to manufacturer guidance and aligned to insurer expectations, Professional Retrofits Ltd can advise on suitable Thatcham categories and fitment options.
What to expect on the day
Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop. We confirm the tracker selection, check any insurer wording you provide, and then complete the installation with a neat, integrated finish. Afterwards, we run functional checks and explain the basics of alerts, driver recognition (if applicable), and subscription activation so you leave with a clear understanding of how the system supports tracking and recovery.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GPS tracker for insurance on a Kia EV6 GT?
It depends on your insurer and policy wording. Some policies request a Thatcham category such as S5 or S7, while others simply recommend an approved tracker. Therefore, check your schedule or ask your insurer what they require for your vehicle.
Which tracker is suitable: S5 or S7?
S7 focuses on location tracking and recovery support via a Secure Control Centre. S5 adds driver recognition, which some insurers prefer. However, the right choice depends on your insurer’s requirement and how you use the vehicle.
Will a tracker stop my car being stolen?
No. A GPS tracker supports visibility, alerting, and recovery processes, but it does not prevent theft on its own. Consequently, it works best as part of a wider security approach.
Is monitoring included?
Approved trackers typically require an active subscription to a Secure Control Centre for monitoring and response. We’ll explain what’s included with the tracker option you choose and what you need to do to keep it active.
Can the system immobilise the vehicle?
Some insurance-approved systems support immobilisation, but it is controlled through the Secure Control Centre and may require police involvement depending on the provider’s rules. Therefore, availability depends on the specific tracker and monitoring service.
Where is the tracker fitted?
Fitted at our workshop in Nuneaton. Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop.
How long does installation take?
Times vary by tracker type and vehicle configuration. However, most installs are completed within a booked workshop appointment, and we’ll confirm an estimated time when you enquire.
Can you work with an existing tracker already on the vehicle?
Often, yes. We can assess whether an existing system is active and suitable for your insurer’s current requirement. If not, we can advise on replacing it with an approved option.
Important
Insurance requirements vary by provider and policy. Always confirm tracker category and approval requirements with your insurer before booking.
