best hinding place?

[mark.yellow.series.3]

i have purchasded a DATATAG kit for my landy. www.datatag.co.uk
the kit comprises of a anti vandal green triangle, that you bolt on. and a transceiver that is hidden on the trailer/motorbike/landy/whatever. also there are microdots and that kind of thing. (but mines the basic one i think)
where do you people think the transceiver should be hidden?
there is the chassis rail, or the hollow bit on the bulkhead, rearbulkhead, or what about the strengthening rails going over the roof (series roof).

any thoughts?
presumably the most perminant thing on the car.

cheers in advance.

Are they waterproof??

I'd be tempted to place it where its gonna be not straight forward to locate in the vehicle...... but whatever you choose.. Don't post it on here

Just realised...... Is it a tracker :?:    I'd best click your link to find out :oops:

Can i also say. Attach it to the bit you would most like to get back, in the event of it being stolen and stripped. :)

The on on the audi would take me the best part of a day to get back out, certianly took a day to put in there.

Sextons just said that it should b someplace trhats an absolute pig to get at that hey wont look and if it takes you a good few hours to get in there with any kind of knowledge, the'll have to get it out without knowing its there of having any knowledge.

Mine certainly wasnt waterproof.

its not a traker as such, the idea is, if its recovered, the police use a hand held scanner at short range, and it will send back an ID code, which is registered to you.

best place would be on top of the fuel tank in a sealed box
or inside the dash or even under the inner wings
not a lot of hollow spaces in a landy

I'd say the chassis, its the largest single part and the last bit to be removed when its stripped, therefore the most identifyable.

However, if you bury it in the chassis will the reciever work to pick up the tag id?

not sure, as i havnt recieved it yet. but the whole car is a big tin can, so i would assume it would work.

but the front bulk head has a small hollow strip running from each side, just under the front vents.

Datatags are popular on bikes and caravans.  I'd be surprised if you only got one though.  Noramlly a bike frame, engine/box casing, each wheel and the seat gieven that those are the most saleable bits once the fairings have gone and that way the bike can be traced even after it's stripped for spares.

Only trouble is they have to know where to look.

We used to sell and fit something similar at work, I think ours were made by travan but cant quite remember.

 They came on a steel plate with four M10 bolts, most of the time out fitters used to bolt them to the top of the chassis rail, really depends on the vehicle though.

 We sell THESE now, don't even bother hiding them now the aerial is just to big.
