I was thinking about getting a starter kill and they came down in price and was wondering if anybody has put one in their cars or has ever shopped from http://www.asianwolf.comI have been trolling their site for years and thought about buying an alarm system. I just wanted to see where they went, business wise I mean. They're still around and growing so I'm thinking of giving it a shot.I'm not going to go crazy and buy a whole system yet, just their starter kill from here: http://www.asianwolf.com/car-alarm-smartkpl.htmlYoutube video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v...eddedDescription:This item works with or without an alarm system. Easy to install on any car, truck or motorcycle. No one will be able to start your car without entering the six digit combination code, even if they have the key! Can be installed into any vehicle.-The system is installed in addition to other existing security systems, if such exists, and is designed to provide the best combination of maximum protection and operation convenience. -The system includes a keyboard unit which is installed on the front panel of the vehicle at an easy approach location, and one or two cut-off units which are installed at concealed places and prevent the possibility of starting the engine without entering a secret personal code. -The keypad illuminates for night time use. No more worries about someone taking off with your car. Even if they break your ignition or steering columm and try to hotwire it, THEY WILL FAIL! -If you are carjacked outside your vehicle, hand them the keys and run. They won't be able to start your car. -If they take your car while the engine is running, they won't be able to start it again once they turn the ignition off. Comes with complete with relay and all wiring harnesses and diagrams.If I get it, I'll put the install in here.

Its an electronic kill switch. It makes and brakes the ignition circuit. It can be bypassed very quickly.

actually no, they thought of that, if the keypad doesn't send the correct code to the main unit then it won't let it start. I have my dash half taken apart right now and I would bury it deep in the dash somewhere.

I think it sounds neat, but if you worried about your cars safety, I would hide it. I wouldnt want it out in the open, that draws attention to it. If I were to get one I would either put it in the glove box somewere, so its out of sight. Or if thats too far, I would hide it under the ash tray in the center councle. All you have to do is pull that up and enter the code. And if your not a smoker, Put it in the ash tray. Drill a little hole in one end. Put the box in there and runt the wire out the hole, under the centercouncle, and into the dash. It would be out of site and be badass. IMO

I wouldn't leave it out, I was also thinking of some how to put it in the door pocket. but the ashtray idea seems easier. Good thing I quit smoking. Also, I'm assuming it connects to one of the wires on the ignition itself. What I would do, it completely re-route the wire to one of the leads so they just can't bridge em and start the car.

When I see the key pad all I think of is "1 2 3 4 5. 1 2 3 4 5, why that's the combination an idiot would put on his luggage!"

with the code being 6 digits long, you'll have 15625 different possible code combos.Five numbers, by six digits starting with 111111, then 111112, all the way to 555555.so 5x5x5x5x5x5=15625 I can't wait

man I was always good at math and at first I thought you meant I got it all wrong because I hadn't done a single bit of math in ages. Think of it if the keypad code was only two digits long, that would be 5 times 5 making 25 different codes.but since there's 6 digits I just did this5 times 5 is 25 times 5 is 125 times 5 is 625 times 5 is 3125 times 5 is 15625 smoke was coming from my head just now, good thing I cooled it with some beer.
