Does anyone know how to set one up? Ya i know there are ways to get by it, but its a lil added security. I sometimes get paranoid parking my car is certain places or at certain times. I plan on getting an alarm with a pager sometime after my motor gets in, but i still want to set this switch up. How exactly do i wire one up? Thanks

An ignition kill switch would probably be easier. If you've got a Haynes, flip to the back and lookup the contact wire, the positive one, and put a switch inline.

Wouldn't a ignition switch be a little more obvious to a criminal?
Or maybe it's just me

Not if there was a little label above it that said something like "Rectal Probe" or "Tampon Dispenser". They probably wouldn't touch it, then.

If you're really paronoid that some 'gator is gonna crawl outta the swamp and steal Cressy, consider a starter kill and ignition kill switch (as already suggested) in addition to just cutting the fuel pump. I'm looking to do something along those lines soon.

Just hide all the switches.

OR you could get like twenty of them and mount them to the roof, except they're ALL connected to the ignition and you have to know the right combination of off-on to get it to start. That'd be sweet, kinda like a jet or something.

or like this

See? It's all just all just to hide his kill switch, I"m tellin' ya.

No thats the new style CAI, takes air from above where the air is already colder due to altitude
