Default Cut off switch

I am doing a C7 display in a convention hall and they require all cars to have a cut off switch.
Is there a switch made for a C7 ?
Thanks

I'm assuming you need a cut off switch similar to those used by racers. Some time back there was a thread about race required cut off switches and a few here posted that they've installed one.

Try searching here for shut off switches, also try Google.

Sorry I don't have more specific information, perhaps someone who knows will post more. What I've posted should point you in the direction you wish to go. Good luck.

I think it's for fire regulations. If you don't have a switch installed you may be allowed
to disconnect the battery cables while the vehicle is on display inside the building.

The disconnect should be to the battery, in line on the negative cable I would imagine.
