There are loads out there...all depends on how much you want to spend.

You can get ones that have live monitoring but that has device install and running subscriptions, or you can go the opposite way and get an android/iphone, put it on a plan and get a gps app that will tell you the location of the car.

havent heard of the phone trick before, assuping youd have to always have the GPS turned on on ya mobile, could be quite battery draining i guess

Why would it ? don't use a damn iPhone but a tried and true Nokia , cheap as chips , long standby and better signal

But iPhone can face time the crim and use find my phone app to simplify the setup and stream music , use for emergency like poor mans onstar

Haha lots of handy items if your clever and take it apart to mount the camera in dash bezel or vent

and you can set the phone to erase after failed attempts to unlock ( could be good or bad depending on mounting )

this is an awesome idea - i am in!

did some limited reading and the suggested wiring the iphone charger up using a 12V accessory plug and wiring it to a 'acc on' power source, so that it charges while your car is runninng - and there is no load on the battery when it's off.
