It sounds like a GPS tracker.. seems like someone wanted to monitor where the car was being driven or where it was at any given time. They would have to login to the internet and I guess could enter a transponder number and be able to track their car. Similar to Lo Jack or to find out if your wife is banging some other dude.. haha.

I would take that shit out since the previous owner is probably tracking you now! LoL

can u get any images of it? Even though they didnt tell me where the lojack in my car was i found it under my back seat (drivers side) when installing my sound system. i could tell u if it looks the same

Well, after looking into a little more, it just seems to be another solution similar to LoJack

after a quick google, here's what I found...

Sounds like probably what you have in your car. You might want to give them a call and see how best to approach <ahem> "deactivation" of the device.

did you finance your car? If so, it might be from the company that finances since the website had payment notification and such other things that kept to the term of asset, just like any company would
