Red face Anti-theft Kill Switch

I would like to install a on.off switch to prevent theft. I want to have a cut off switch to an electrical source that will not let the car start unless the switch is turned on. Any idea where i can bypass a source to have this work without the thief knowing how to get past it? Will bypassing the solenoid wire to the starter work?

Any set up by sponsors made to have a little more sophistication than just an on/off switch? I know fesler has a kill switch, but it is a time switch, which kills the car after 90 seconds.. any other takers who make a quality set up?

If you have a MSD their install instructions say you can put (depending on how it is hooked to your distributor) a toggle switch on the white or violet wire. I did it and hid the toggle..When toggle is off car will crank but won't start

My car also came with a wire running from a momentery switch through a relay to the back of the start position on my Ign and you have to hold the momentery switch for it to even crank . Hope it helps

I went with a RFID kit from Advanced key. No more ignition.

If you aren't within 6 feet of the car with the RFID it will never start or open.

MSD 6AL

THEFT DETERRENT
The MSD provides the opportunity to easily install a theft deterrent kill switch (Figure 4).

White Wire Trigger
When using the WHITE wire to trigger the MSD, install a switch across the magnetic pickup

VIOLET wire to ground. When the VIOLET wire is grounded, the vehicle will crank but not
start.

Magnetic Pickup Trigger
When using the mag pickup to trigger the MSD, install a switch to the WHITE wire and the
other side to ground. When

Here's something to look at they have several systems.

I use the second function on my Viper remote to kill the battery. It keeps the power on to the stereo and alarm etc.

If you would like to add power door locks we have our keyless entry kit (p/n MI 700) that we can easily add an ignition kill feature by adding a relay to the unit and with our door lock actuator install kit (p/n MI 910) you can easily install the actuators in your doors. The MI 700 uses a keyfob to lock and unlock the doors. When the unit is in the lock mode the igintion kill is activated so your car won't crank. You can also add our electric trunk latch release kit (p/n MI 800) to this unit and open the trunk via the remote keyfob or by push button installed inside the car.

No it comes with its own computer in the kit. You will need power locks though. I got mine from Modo Innovations and the Advanced Key i ordered direct.

I won't be adding power locks.

I don't have a msd 6al, just msd distributor and blaster coil.
