Im having a tracker installed tomorrow. Who else has done this and did it make a difference to your insurance? Im also a bit worried that it may interfere with any the DAB or Nav...has anyone any experience of any issues?

I can’t help too much with insurance etc however my van has a live tracker.
It records every input I make and locations on the map as well as co ordinates.
It doesn’t interfere with anything, you’d never know it was there and I have a DAB radio

Nice one...I don't want that Buzz noise you get from electronics that transmit when close to other electronics....Silverzedtom wrote: ↑Tue Aug 07, 2018 8:00 pmI can’t help too much with insurance etc however my van has a live tracker.

You won’t get anything like that at all. Ours are all on a monthly subscription but I’m guessing that’s as we have a fleet.
What have you gone for? Is it just an initial cost for the tracker and fitting? Reason I ask is am I’ve been thinking of having one fitted for a while now.

When I got my 1st Z4 in 2012 I was with LV....they refused to insure it for theft unless I had a tracker fitted!

I had a tracker installed when I bought my Zed, as a condition on my insurance. So it certainly makes a difference for me. Took out a life time one off cover. Happily still covered and not cost me another penny in 7 1/2 years.
