My problem with start kill switches is that the car can still be push started in a few seconds.

On ebay you can find RFID kill set ups..

I have a relay set up to accessories on the dash.

Commonly used is the cig lighter, or headlights, mines a little more complicated, and you don't see any of the added parts unless you tear apart the entire dash (bad if any of it fails).

Not if it's an automatic!

I just got one of those 125 dB air horns from Harbor Freight - I'm wiring it i nas a 2nd horn.

I'm also wiring it to the ignition switch, so that you flip a switch to select whether power form the ignition will (a) turn on the starter or (b) turn on the 125dB horn.

That why you hook the switch into the fuel pump wiring. Even if the get the rig started, i's only going to run on the fuel thats left in the lines. The thief will only get 'bout MAYBE 30-40 feet. If they want your rig that bad, they'll have to flatbed it or tow it.

dntsdad- I have mine wired up to the fuel pump circuit and havent had any problems...like pest said I have a standard, so I dont want them to be able to push start my truck. BTW your brakes and steering wont fail, but the vacuum assist and the power assist will, you will still be able to turn and hit the brakes its just going to take more work!

Shoot with 37s, and stock pwr steering pump its like having manual steering anyway

I got a solution, take your coil wire off when you leave your truck, its free...when I take my doors off I do this on top of the FP kill switch, so If they find that, then it still wont start

find this 1 wire connector and unplug it

it's the ground signal to the fuel pump relay - the one that goes to the Vane Airflow Meter - without it the ECU provides enough gas to start the engine and it'll run for a few seconds before it dies. Thief thinks your truck is a POS that won't stay running and leaves it.

i haven't installed it yet but i have a remote lock kit for my truck that includes a starter immobilizer. if the lock remote isn't inside the truck it will not start. of course this depends on if you have power locks. the problem i see with this is if you lose the remote but if you do lose the remote it isn't the end of the world you just have to reconnect the starter wire that the immobilizer wires into. i don't know if you can still get this kit being that my dad bought it in 98 and its just been sitting in our grage never installed. its called the bulldog security ke100. remote locks with security sounds like a win-win to me.
