    We are trying to install a AiriQ gps tracker on a 2005 VOLVO 670 but cant seem to figure out where would be the best place to place it. We need it connected to 12V/24 constant power source, a ground, and a 12V/24 ignition power source. What are your recommendations? And has anyone installed this exact tracker before?

    Thanks in advance!

    I would suggest u place it behind instrument panel although never installed that type of tracker before or u can even put it behind cigarette lighter in front and get everything from the fuse box which would be easiest way

    we used to install it under fuse panel. There are ignition and constant power outlets for Body builders, unused and unused small fuse panel. Easy to fit a seal on tracker fuses to avoid driver's cheating
