Polestar 2 Performance Pack Insurance Approved Tracker
Professional Retrofits Ltd supplies and installs a Polestar 2 Performance Pack insurance approved tracker, Fitted at our workshop in Nuneaton, with options aligned to common UK insurer requirements for Thatcham-recognised tracking.
Because vehicle security works best in layers, a GPS tracking system adds ongoing location visibility and supports stolen vehicle tracking and recovery via a Secure Control Centre. Additionally, depending on the tracker category and insurer criteria, systems may include driver recognition and, where insurance-approved and police-controlled, optional immobilisation; however, tracking is designed to support recovery and does not prevent theft on its own.
Quick overview
- Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop
- Thatcham-recognised categories: S5 (with driver recognition) and S7 (tracking)
- Secure Control Centre monitoring to support police liaison during an active incident
- Neat, hard-wired installation designed to suit modern EV electrical systems
- Clear handover: app/portal setup guidance and what to do if your vehicle goes missing
Neat, vehicle-integrated GPS tracking designed to meet insurer expectations
We focus on discreet, vehicle-integrated GPS tracking that aims to meet insurer expectations without compromising day-to-day usability. Therefore, we prioritise tidy wiring, stable power management, and reliable GPS/GSM performance, while also keeping the installation sympathetic to the vehicle’s interior and trim.
Importantly, insurers and finance providers often specify a tracker category rather than a brand. As a result, we help you confirm whether S5 or S7 is appropriate for your policy, and we can also discuss subscription terms and Secure Control Centre coverage before you commit.

Professional Retrofits Ltd — GPS tracker installation
This page covers GPS tracking systems supplied and installed by our team. We can help you choose an insurer-recognised tracker category and arrange a tidy, vehicle-integrated installation.
What’s included with our GPS tracker installation
We supply and fit hard-wired GPS tracking systems that are designed for UK insurance use-cases, and we support you with the practical details that matter after installation. Consequently, you get a solution that is not only discreet, but also straightforward to operate.
- Tracker supply and configuration: a Thatcham-recognised S5 or S7 unit (where applicable) set up to the correct profile for your vehicle and subscription.
- Secure Control Centre support: monitoring that can assist with incident handling and police liaison when a vehicle is reported missing, subject to the service terms.
- Driver recognition (S5): where required, driver ID features help the Control Centre distinguish authorised use from potential unauthorised movement.
- Optional immobilisation: only where the chosen system is insurance-approved for it and where activation is police-controlled; availability varies by tracker and policy.
- Handover guidance: what to do if your insurer asks for evidence, plus how to use the app/portal and how to contact the Control Centre.
Although GPS tracking supports visibility and recovery, it does not prevent theft on its own. However, it can improve the chances of timely location data being available during an incident.
Thatcham categories and insurance suitability (S5 vs S7)
Insurers typically refer to Thatcham-recognised tracker categories, and the right choice depends on your policy wording. Therefore, it helps to check what your insurer or broker has specified before booking.
- S7 (Thatcham-recognised tracking): designed to provide location tracking and recovery support via a Secure Control Centre. This category is often requested where tracking is required, but driver recognition is not specified.
- S5 (Thatcham-recognised tracking with driver recognition): includes driver ID functionality in addition to tracking, and it is commonly requested on higher-value vehicles or where insurers want confirmation of authorised driving.
Insurance disclaimer: tracker requirements vary by insurer, policy type, and vehicle value. While Thatcham-recognised systems are widely accepted, acceptance is not guaranteed, and a tracker does not guarantee theft prevention or an insurance discount.
Tracking & recovery support and account setup
We can install a new hard-wired tracker, and we can also help where you already have a compatible unit that needs reconfiguration or reactivation. Additionally, we can guide you through subscription activation and the information your insurer may ask for, such as the tracker category and the monitoring provider.
If you want to understand the wider tracking service options and how monitored tracking works in practice, you can also refer to Vehicle Trackers Coventry for additional background on GPS tracking services.
Because response processes matter, we explain how to contact the Secure Control Centre and what details to provide if an incident occurs. As a result, you are prepared to act quickly, while keeping communication clear and accurate.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a GPS tracker for insurance?
Some UK insurers and finance providers request a Thatcham-recognised tracker category (often S5 or S7) for certain vehicles or cover levels. However, requirements vary, so it’s best to check your policy wording or ask your broker what category they require.
Which tracker category is suitable: S5 or S7?
S7 is a monitored tracking category, while S5 adds driver recognition. Therefore, if your insurer specifies driver recognition, S5 is usually the relevant category; if they only specify tracking, S7 may be sufficient, subject to insurer acceptance.
Will a tracker stop my vehicle being stolen?
No. A GPS tracker supports location visibility and recovery processes, but it does not prevent theft on its own. However, monitored tracking can help provide timely location information during an incident.
Can a tracker include immobilisation?
Some insurance-approved systems support immobilisation, but availability depends on the tracker and category. Additionally, where fitted, immobilisation is typically police-controlled via the Secure Control Centre and is not a driver-operated feature.
Do you install GPS trackers at my home or workplace?
No. Customers bring their vehicle to our workshop.
How long does GPS tracker installation take?
Times vary by vehicle and tracker category. However, most installations are completed within a booked appointment window, and we’ll confirm expectations when you enquire.
Will the tracker affect my vehicle warranty or insurance?
Insurers usually focus on the tracker category and monitoring. While a professionally installed tracker is designed to integrate cleanly, you should always follow your vehicle warranty terms and disclose modifications where required by your insurer.
What information should I provide when I contact you?
Please share your vehicle details, your insurer’s tracker requirement (if stated), and whether they specify S5 or S7. Then we can confirm a suitable option and provide a quote.
