Look at the back of the coupe. On the left hand tail lamp its got this **** thing. What is that? What does it do?

In the pic of the EK above notice the rear bumper its got some ***** at the passenger side and some at the bottom side. What are they???

Cut off switch for a relocated battery, required by some racing associations if you've got a vehicle running under a certain 1/4 time. I'm sure there's other reasons for it...but that's the one I know.

Definately a battery kill switch. You can get them at your local parts supplier. I know we sell them at Advance Auto anyway.

that cut off switch is 100% NOT LEGAL FOR NHRA and you will fail tech if it is there.
the other 2 are charging posts.

Mark's car is HELLA bad-***.

In want to do remote battery terminals now.

The switch i'm not so sure on. Rednecks in my town would be flipping it on/off all the time.

looks like an on-off switch for power and the other two are to charge your battery between runs.

You really don't need to. The owner posted them just like that, and if he had cared about that issue he would've blurred them out himself.

if you are worried about someone turning off the switch then what would stop someone from putting a wrench accross the two terminals and starting your car on fire. or a piece of zero gauge wire?

So Should people cover their plates all the time because people in general will see it anywhere anyways. Whats the difference seeing it online or on the street. Just my opinion.

I would think the difference is on here you can probally find out what the veh has in it possible even what kind of alarm.
see if its worth finding out where he lives.
vs on the street someone may see you looking at the car and scoping it out.
I would think if the owner posted it w/o removing plates than you wouldnt be to blame.
