ok
from your main relay there should be a yellow wire with a green stripe
cut and splice a kill switch on that wire
it's your fuel pump wire
however there is more than one yellow/green wire in the car
use an ohms meter to confirm that it is the correct wire
with a multi meter hold one side red/black to the main relay side and the other red/black to the fuel pump side
if you get a reading (regardless of what the reading is) than it's the correct wire
ohms=resistance of the wire
if it's the correct wire there will be resistance
if not there will be nothing get it?

FYI, a kill switch can be defeated relatively quickly, even if you spend hours hiding it,

I have 3 independent ones on mine

invest in ravelco, I definitely love mine

I just looked at this ravelco..... very interesting! Might have to up the security one more step.

Multiple layers people!

Quick releases aren't that great. A large set of vice grips and the thief can drive it away....but, it can't hurt and it's on the right track.

Multiple layers!

The idea is to make the thief have to defeat multiple layers of security. This is more time consuming and more risky.
