First, inorder to have it track legal you will need an emergency shut off switch- usually mounted around the license plate somewhere.

I think they look sweet in the bottom reflector part on LX tails right by the plate.

oo. now theres another point to this thread

PLEASE POST PICTURES OF CUTOFF SWITCHES

id like a very nice/hard to spot location

I dont have pics, or the link to the site i went off of, but i mounted my switch behind the plate.

all you have to to, is mount spacers, or longer bolts to move the plate back about 2".

Its completely hidden from view, and all you have to do, it remove your plate at the track. Also makes for a nice anti-theft switch since you can reach it with the hatch open.

Ill get some pics up later tonight.

if theres a cut off switch will it make your ecu lose its mem. evry time u shut it off

yes it will, but i suppose you could wire it to the battery if you wanted to.

Easiest spot is right behind the plate. Tons of room to put it there. No pics, too tired to go out now.

The closer you place the fuse to the battery the better. Any shorts to ground before the battery will cause the battery to drain.
