You live In LA?!...better get a wheel locker too! All kidding aside, a while ago i bought a Quorum Immobilizer on Ebay for $10. its an interupter/immobilizer key that must be inserted before starting. It interupts the fuel pump, starter and the coil, alot of wires so i have yet attempt to install it. I might just have an installer do it. You can see them here: http://www.astrogen.com/ts4.htm As for a ingition kill switch Some heavy duty Kill switches here: http://www.magnumforceracing.com/flaming_river_battery_switches.asp Phil 84' Westy Tiico w/10K miles
