Didn't want to get my Honda stolen, so I installed this awesome remote kill switch (along with signing up for the Texas HEAT program)

You must press the "on" button within a couple seconds of turning the ignition to the point where you can see the check engine light.

Here is the device I used:


Let me know what you think?!

Couple minutes with GIMP for you electrical gimps



NOTES:
*Everytime you turn off the car, the switch turns off, awesome, no?
*It acts funny if you don't do a separate ground for the white wire....
*Valet switch is a really good idea just in case your remote's battery dies and you are in the middle of timbucktoo with no wires to short it to ground
*Tear off the number which shows the remote code
*Try to hide your wiring
*Many thieves may just think your honda is a bucket if it cranks but doesn't start
*USE A RELAY!!!!
* NO WARRANTY !!!

Here it is switching my nintendo on/off remotely

Great job! What wire did you install the remote on? I bought one that's similar to this, but needs constant power supply and it only disconnects that circuit ( they intended it as a battery kill switch but that would rest all the electronics)
