• Do people still wire a secret switch that cuts the ignition?
    My volvo has a key/switch in the glove box that cuts everything. I never use it because my car's a shitheap.

  • Do people still wire a secret switch that cuts the ignition?

    I had one in my Dolomite Sprint that I recently sold... though that was so insecure that you could get into it just by looking at it so it kind of made sense.

    I think you're better off with something visible, to stop them trying to get in in the first place, though a little flickswitch somewhere isn't too much effort to add / use I guess.

  • the latest wheeze amongst the more resourceful car theft gangs is to load your vehicle onto a flatbed truck, drop it off in a remote area / car park and see if anyone comes to claim it. this is why trackers are not an entirely terrible idea. presuming they don't find the thing and bin it prior to setting off. tho even doing this will send off an alert.
