Question FIA Battery cut off switch.

Anyone fitted one of these? Want one on my track car and was wondering how easy/hard they were to fit.

What fuse ?

The only complex part is fitting the resistor so that the alternator doesn't feed the ecu (hence keeping the engine running ), when the switch is actuated to kill the engine...

If anyone is looking for the wire to cut the ignition it is the red one going to the cool pack in the engine bay.

Same wire on my Wrx as a 1.6 impreza so assume same across the range.
