    if you want to use your hazard button to start it up, you would have to run a relay of some sort.

    Hazard wouldn't be good because it sometimes works with or without the key...if someone were to find the real switch for the hazards they would come on and they would quickly realize where the kill switch is....if that makes sense.

    You have to if you expect your car to be where you parked it last

    In the end kill switches just borrow a little bit of time but does nothing if it's towed, a GPS locator hidden somewhere in or on the car is the only way you're protected or just about guaranteed you'll get it back. Not saying don't have the switches though, gotta have something on it to entertain the thief and hopefully prevent a joy ride and/or mechanical abuse.
