I second this. I have the Glock part down but I think if I got a tracking device i would lose my temper.
Another thought is to start "punching" all your aftermarket parts in distinct hard to find locations with custom stamps.
We used to do this at a wrecking yard I worked at so people couldn't bring back parts that weren't ours as returns. I'm sure you can get custom punches made somewhere reasonably.
Of course this isn't theft prevention but it may help in recovery and eventually catching thieves...
On another hand, I've always liked to pretend that lowering my car enough may deter tow truck style thieves. lol.
As for the bait car idea, why don't a few of you Florida peeps try this
1. Put some cash together for beater s13
2. Rattle can it, sweet stickers, cut springs for lowering, JDMTYGHT muffler, etc cheap shit
3. Place in high theft area, stake it out
4. If stolen, pursue from a distance while dialing your local PD.
5. Throw that bastard in the slammer.
6. Repaint, and repeat until shit calms down.
Idk, I think bait car is a good idea in theory, and if there is enough of you guys in on it and theft is as big an issue as it seems down there why not give it a shot?
