Kill switch question??
Hello All,
All the story threads regarding car theft has me nervous. I contacted LoJack yesterday and they want @ $1,000 or so for their systems.
I have read on the forum where a "kill switch" could be installed to disrupt either the fuel or firing of the engine.
One of the other forum members suggested that I post here. Is it feasible to mount a switch (hidden of course) inside the car that would kill the ignition signal wire??? Has anybody done this with their cars? How much and where should I go to get such a thing if it is a good idea?
Any advise would be very much appreciated.
Thank you.
