I would be more inclined to just get a battery powered unit and leave the entire wiring out of it if you are just worried about locating the car in case of theft. Also might just be easier to wire in a hidden kill switch instead of GPS tracker. Will accomplish your desired goal of keeping better track of the car at all times without the pain of actually having it stolen.

Yeah I think you're right. The Trackimo looks great, and lasts a long time on a charge.
Thanks for the advice everyone.
