Not installed yet. Just bought it. Im still thinking of a mounting location on the Hyundai. But in the Supra, I'm going to mount it here. I'm going to make a black plastic border for it so it flushes even with the console. Right now I'm thinking about getting rid of the key altogether. Just having the alarm remote, keypad, and a push button start in place of the cig lighter.

I took that little pocket with the lid off because it wouldnt stay closed and I've finally found a better use for that space.


I called Circuit City and they said they don't do that kind of installation. He said a place called Sound Advice might.

EDIT - Sound Advice does it for $150. They call it an immobilizer. It takes a few hours. Getting it installed next week.

yea, sound advice rocks. i lived in orlando for the longest time and i always went there for everything. i also have an 01 tiburon so i will be getting a kill switch in that and in my expedition.

the tib is basically full race so i will have that in the garage but i will still get a kill switch on it.

now we are fighting with the insurance, they don't want to pay for the supra. we have full coverage insurance for the expedition and the supra and they are trying to say we don't have theft on the supra but we have it on the expedition. funny thing is, both cars are covered on the same exact policy so how does it not have theft.

insurance is just a big scam

I hope they do a good job. I still havent found a mounting location in the Hyundai. Bastard car has so much shit everywhere.

And yes insurance is one big scam. They will fight everything, even if its legit. Dont give up tho. If you complain enough they will give in.
