[QUOTE="brian84corvette, post: 5423732, member: 586635"] some one had asked if I have to manualy turn on the electrical cut off switches I have. = yes I do. all 4 of them. - 2 are under the hood - and 2 are right near my amps / rear battery. I could easily wire in some relays, that would do the same thing, save for me having to manualy turn them on and off, and I would wire them in to a single toggle switch on the dash but I dont feel like spending 50$ on each one right now. I have every single electrical thing in my car on a cut off switch. factory cpu - all fuze boxes , ignition, head unit... amps, batterys are seperated by switches. all of it is wired so incase of something crazy happening, I can "kill" all 4 switches and completely turn off all of the cars electricity. I also carry a "chemical" fire extingusher right in front of my pasnger seat. for the just incase times. have seen too many pictures of older c4 corvettes that have burned to the ground due to something stupid as bad wire hiding somewheres.
