Top 10 Car Surveillance Tools for Catching a Cheater
If you suspect your partner is up to something—and they’re driving around like nothing’s going on—car surveillance is your next smart move.
Whether they’re claiming to be at work, staying out late with “friends,” or just acting shady about where they’ve been, the right tools can give you quiet, powerful insight into what’s really happening when they hit the road.
As an Illinois Licensed Private Detective, I’ve worked with dozens of clients who needed to track, monitor, or document car activity discreetly. These Amazon finds are beginner-friendly, discreet, and effective—whether you’re watching movement, recording video, or collecting receipts they didn’t expect you to see.
Here are 10 solid tools you can use to spy like a pro—right from the driver’s seat (or the trunk).

Real-time tracking in a compact, magnetic case. Great battery life and app control make this one a reliable choice for under-the-car placement or glovebox stashing.
