After a very long and very wet winter, spring has finally arrived here in the Pacific Northwest
Unfortunately, this also means that local tweekers have turned their attention from pulling B&E jobs to stealing trucks so they can commute to their meth labs out in the national forests.
So far, I know two guys who have lost their rigs in the last month...some loggers found one upside-down in a ravine, but the other is still MIA...

Anyway...while researching hidden KILL switches I read these posts:

I'm intrigued by the idea of using a switch to ground the negative ignition coil wire as an alternative to the basic (and quickly defeated) ignition circuit and / or fuel pump kills, but also like the idea of adding a toggle switch to the Clutch Start Switch.
Anyone ever installed either of these?
Anyone see any potential problems or complications that might be caused by either of these ? (aside from the potential need to remove a failed switch and splice the interrupted wire, of course)
They both seem like simple solutions that would be easy to hide.
I always carry a fire extinguisher, but but I sure as hell don't wanna fry my ignition system or light my truck on fire in the process...:shock:
