Check with an installer to see how the antenna works. On some systems (I
think LoJack is one), the antenna is in the car's headliner, and is quite
easy to find. Smart theives (oxymoron?) would slice the headliner and pull
out the antenna. 

Any of the trackers should be put in well by a trick installer; the tracker
isn't any good if the brain is visible under the dash & can be easily
ripped out.
