Hi all. I have a 98 Mazda B4000 4x4. Random theft of vehicle's has been pretty rampant around these parts for awhile and I don't want to be one of the victims. I have been thinking of simple and different ways to set up some sort of cut off switch to either the starter, ignition or fuel pump. Don't really want to have to pop the hood to activate/deactivate it, or wire some sort of extra switch to the interior, that can be found by a would be thief.
Kind of dawned on me, the passenger airbag switch/ location might make a good kill switch. I was thinking if I maybe were to get another switch, and wire it in, if that might work. Take the original airbag switch, and turn it to on, and stuff it up under the dash and wire in a different airbag switch that would cut power to say the fuel pump. Switch would be hidden in plain sight and chances a thief figuring out, I think, would be slim.
Has anybody tried this or think it might work?? Id rather fix a busted steering column, than replace my whole truck.
