shouldnt be too hard

find a live feed to the fuel pump - cut it - put switch in - hide switch

simple eh :D

me again - if you want to use this as a form of security aswell then add 2 switches :D

leave one turned on all the time - so if a theif does see it - he will think thats the only one - then hide the other one somewhere else

i actaully wanted to make a really silly one :D rather than just a switch ( tooo obvious ) - i was going to use a headphone socket and plug - that way it would look like a hole in the dash - but you put the plug into the socket and suddenly the fuel pump works :D

there are probably a million cool things that you could use for this - and it wont make it look as obvious :D

would stop people nicking it :D

that could be an interesting way of doing it - wire the fuel pump live thru the horn - so you have a switch that you can turn off

if someone does nick the car - the horn will sound as they drive along - which in theory should attract some attention :D
