Collection: Vehicle Security

German Auto Mods supplies and installs the Autowatch Ghost II immobiliser — the UK's most effective anti-theft device for BMW, Audi, Mercedes-Benz, and Volkswagen vehicles, including electric models.

The Ghost II works on your car's CAN bus, requiring a unique PIN sequence entered through your existing steering wheel buttons or dashboard controls before the engine will start. There is no external device, no key fob, and no radio frequency signal — making it completely undetectable by relay attack equipment and OBD diagnostic tools used by thieves.

Thatcham Research Category 6 approved. Compatible with all major German brands including BMW i4, iX, Audi e-tron, VW ID.3 and ID.4. Many UK insurers reduce premiums on proof of Ghost II installation — contact your insurer for terms.

Over 130,000 vehicles were stolen in England and Wales in 2023. If you drive a BMW, Audi, Mercedes, or VW, your car is among the highest-targeted models in the UK.

Our Immobiliser Range

We supply and fit three industry-leading CAN-bus immobilisers, each requiring a unique PIN sequence through your factory buttons before the engine will start:

• Ghost Immobiliser — the industry-leading, widely recognised PIN sequence immobiliser, proven across a huge range of vehicles.
• Shadow Vehicle Security Immobiliser — hidden PIN protection with auto re-arm and service/valet mode, a strong competitive alternative.
• Elite Immobiliser with Insurance Approved Tracker — combines a no-tag, no-start immobiliser with a Thatcham S5 insurance-approved GPS tracker in one unit.

Vehicle Trackers

A GPS tracker gives you live visibility of your vehicle and dramatically improves the chances of recovery if it is ever stolen. Our Thatcham-approved trackers range from essential live location tracking to advanced driver recognition and police-approved remote immobilisation — all managed through a free mobile app, with worldwide coverage including Europe. Many UK insurers reduce premiums when an approved tracker is fitted.

• Thatcham S7 Tracker — live location, journey history, geofences and tamper alerts. From £199.
• Thatcham S5 Tracker — everything in the S7 plus driver recognition (D-iD). £275.
• Thatcham S5+ Tracker — everything in the S5 plus police-approved remote immobilisation. £349.
