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?

Unfortunately, yes. It connects to the engine reader and also has a gps. It’s pay per mile but with a cap on per mile charges so nice for people who don’t drive a lot. It costs $30 USD a month generally (which is cheap for my area). Lemonade (the rental insurance company) just bought it out. When I was with Progressive (a big American car insurance company) they offered a similar device though without much of a discount from what I could tell (I did not opt in). It also had a gyro device of some sort to tell if you were an aggressive driver. thought it was creepy at the time but here I am.
