Mercedes-AMG GLS63 Insurance Approved Tracker
Professional Retrofits Ltd supplies and installs Thatcham-recognised GPS tracking systems for high-value vehicles, including a Mercedes-AMG GLS63 insurance approved tracker, Fitted at our workshop in Nuneaton.
Because vehicle security works best in layers, an insurance-approved GPS tracker can support stolen vehicle tracking and recovery through a Secure Control Centre, while also helping you evidence vehicle location and movement when you need it. Additionally, depending on the approved product and insurer requirements, options such as driver recognition (for S5 systems) and police-controlled immobilisation (where supported and authorised) may be available, although a tracker on its own does not prevent theft.

Neat, vehicle-integrated GPS tracking designed to meet insurer expectations
We focus on discreet, hard-wired GPS tracking that suits premium vehicles and supports insurer requirements. As a result, the system is designed to operate reliably in day-to-day use, while also providing accurate location reporting and event alerts via the associated monitoring pathway. Furthermore, we aim to keep the vehicle’s interior finish tidy and OEM-like, so the tracker integrates cleanly without unnecessary disruption.
Because insurers and underwriters can vary, we also help you select an appropriate Thatcham category (S5 or S7) based on your policy wording and the vehicle’s usage. Then, once the correct system is chosen, we install it professionally and verify core functions before handover.

What’s included with our GPS tracker installation
Professional Retrofits Ltd supplies and fits insurance-recognised GPS tracking systems that are designed to support recovery actions if a vehicle is reported stolen. Although features vary by manufacturer and category, we will confirm what is included before booking, so you know what to expect.
- Hard-wired GPS tracker supply and installation: installed discreetly and configured for dependable operation.
- Secure Control Centre support: monitoring and response coordination via the system’s accredited control centre, subject to subscription/terms.
- Alerting and reporting: location visibility and event notifications, depending on the product and plan.
- Driver recognition (where applicable): typically associated with S5 systems and designed to help confirm authorised use.
- Optional immobilisation (where supported): only where the product approval supports it and activation is controlled/authorised appropriately (for example, police-controlled processes).
- Handover guidance: we explain user-facing elements such as tags/fobs (if applicable) and the subscription steps, so you can keep the system active.
Please note that GPS tracking supports visibility and recovery; however, it does not prevent theft on its own.
Thatcham categories and insurance suitability (S5 vs S7)
Many UK insurers look for Thatcham-approved tracking categories, so choosing the right one can make policy compliance simpler. However, requirements vary by insurer, vehicle value, and driver profile, so you should always check your policy wording or ask your broker to confirm the required category.
- Thatcham S5: typically includes driver recognition, which is designed to help confirm whether the vehicle is being used by an authorised driver. As a result, some insurers prefer S5 for higher-risk or higher-value vehicles.
- Thatcham S7: focuses on location tracking without driver recognition, and it may suit vehicles or policies where S5 is not required.
Although a tracker can be recognised by insurers, we cannot promise that it will reduce premiums or guarantee acceptance. Therefore, we recommend confirming the required Thatcham category and any subscription conditions with your insurer before installation.
Tracking and recovery support
If your vehicle already has a compatible tracking solution, we can discuss whether it can be supported, reactivated, or transferred, depending on the provider’s rules. Alternatively, we can supply and install a new, hard-wired Thatcham-approved tracker and help you set up the associated Secure Control Centre subscription, so the system remains active.
For additional background on monitored tracking options and coverage, you can also refer to Vehicle Trackers Coventry. However, we will still confirm the correct product for your policy and vehicle before any booking.
Why professional GPS tracker installation matters for Mercedes-AMG GLS63
Because premium vehicles can have complex electrical architectures, professional installation helps maintain reliability and reduces the risk of intermittent faults. Additionally, insurers often expect an accredited, Thatcham-recognised system fitted to a high standard, so the installation approach matters as much as the product choice.
When you book with Professional Retrofits Ltd, we focus on a neat, vehicle-integrated finish, careful configuration, and sensible placement choices, so your Mercedes-AMG GLS63 insurance approved tracker supports insurer expectations and day-to-day usability.
What to expect on the day
Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop, and we’ll confirm the agreed tracker category, subscription pathway, and any driver recognition components before we begin. Then we complete the installation and carry out functional checks, so you can leave with the system ready for activation and ongoing monitoring.
Because every vehicle and insurer requirement can differ, we may ask for your policy wording (or the insurer’s tracker requirement) in advance. As a result, we can help you avoid choosing a category that does not meet your policy conditions.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GPS tracker for insurance on a Mercedes-AMG GLS63?
Some UK insurers may request an approved tracker for higher-value vehicles, while others may not. Therefore, you should check your policy schedule or ask your insurer/broker what Thatcham category (S5 or S7) they require, if any.
Which Thatcham tracker category is suitable: S5 or S7?
It depends on your insurer’s wording. Generally, S5 adds driver recognition, whereas S7 focuses on tracking without driver recognition. We can help you choose once you confirm what your insurer expects.
Will a tracker stop my vehicle being stolen?
No. A tracker supports location visibility and recovery coordination through a Secure Control Centre, but it does not prevent theft on its own. For that reason, it should be treated as part of a wider security approach.
Is the tracker monitored?
Insurance-recognised systems are typically supported by a Secure Control Centre, subject to an active subscription. As a result, monitoring and response features depend on the product and the plan you choose.
Can the system include immobilisation?
Some insurance-approved systems support immobilisation in a controlled manner, depending on product approval and operating rules. However, any immobilisation feature is only used where authorised and supported, and it is not a substitute for safe recovery processes.
Do you offer mobile fitting?
Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop.
How long does GPS tracker installation take?
Timing varies by vehicle and tracker type. However, we’ll give you a clear estimate when we confirm the product and booking, and we’ll explain any subscription setup steps needed for activation.
Can you fit a tracker if I already have one?
Sometimes. If you already have a tracker, we can discuss whether it can be reactivated, transferred, or replaced, depending on the provider’s rules and whether it meets your insurer’s required category.
Important
GPS tracking supports stolen vehicle tracking and recovery. It does not prevent theft on its own. Always keep any required subscription active to maintain Secure Control Centre support.
