Basically I'm looking for something that'll help if my car happens to get stolen. Ideally it'd be something I can just set and forget, and doesn't have a subscription.

Any recommendations?

Yeah, they plug into your OBD2 port and monitor mileage and driving habits (hard accel, hard braking, hard cornering) in some cases they can result in cheaper insurance.

In general they're an opt-in thing unless you have horrible driving history.
