    "Easy anti-theft "


    i like the title.
    but it not easy at all, you have to pop your hood everytime and undo the clip.

    would it be better just to make a switch and hide it some where?

    Until your car gets flatbedded. I'm going to go ahead and guess that your jumper doesn't protect against that?

    Haha, this reminds of my anti-theft on my old car. Years ago I used to work at a place with a pretty large, secluded parking lot (easy pickings for a car thief). When I knew I had to work late I'd just pop off the wire from my ignition coil to my distributor cap (car was a 68 Mustang) and just put it in my pocket.

    Thanks for the memories.

    Wouldn't this fail horribly if someone was trying to steal your car when your unlocking it?

    Just saying... I would have made a cut off inside the car.
