(+) or (-) wire on the fuel pump. Run a toggle switch on the ebrake handle switch. Say if that thief takes your car, he must release the brake handle. If he doesn't hit the switch again, car won't start.

You like that huh.

Couldn't you also wire it to the clutch pedal. You know, when you depress the clutch pedal it hits that switch that allows the car to start. Find that wire and make a switch for it.

Yeah, easiest way, buy an alarm and tell everybody that you bought the GPS Tracking System from Vyper and you can track your car anytime and anywhere in USA (trust me, they are not going to touch your car) and just in case this system cost about 800.00 and is separate from the alarm. And then . . .

clutch pedal switch is a bad idea....most 5sp cars require you to hold in clutch i think...mine does not because it used to be auto...i like the disguised idea...has to be an easy to get to switch for convenience...put a switch by the trunk/gas door levers that way its not so niticeable when you hit it...but a good alarm would do fine as well...and a big gun...

Here's an easy one. Unbolt your main relay and let it hang down (should not hang below dash in plain veiw unless your harness is extra long). Just unplug it and take it with you. Easier than taking ECU with you because it is on the drivers side, and if you take the metal holder off of the relay it is small enough to not be an inconvenience. This should foil most theifs, unless they read this and bring one along.
