If you are into electronics and have some extra cash laying around here is your weekend project. You can build your very own GSM GPS tracking device. The materials will cost you about $280, the most expensive piece being the GM862-GPS module for $183.
If you follow his directions carefully, in the end you should be able to switch the module on and off, send text SMS messages through the module and fetch GPS positions from it which should look something like this:
Request GPS
AT$GPSACP got: AT$GPSACP
GPSACP: 131924.999,5333.9291N,00954.8841E,2.6,34.0,3,29.78,0.32,0.17,130707,07
OK
And if you are paranoid of people who can build one of these things you should get yourself a GPS and GSM jammer…via

Looks pretty expensive. I have developped a much more efficent way to communicate with a mobile phone, to exchange data and the temporary location of objects.
The code is only for private use and not for commercial use.

great blog. Very very useful. U have a big heart to share all the info :-).
Please help me too with some info. How to get the fuel level into the GSM modem? There are many old vehicles, which doesn’t have a digital fuel indicator. How could I convert analog fuel level to digital signal? Sorry my questions are very very basic.
