Wouldn't under the van be too obvious. If someone watches you regularly leave the van and/or return to drive it away, he or she will see you turn it on and off each time. Wouldn't seem to be too hard to figure out what you were doing. While it would be more protection than no kill switch, it would only work against a "random" thief. Many thefts aren't random. It would better be hidden inside under the seat or dash so that you activation / deactivation of the switch would not be seen.
