A friend of mine took a power seat mech,made it smaller & att. the E-brake cables to it. It's all mounted under the car & engages with a push of a button.

But what happens when the battery dies???

Well I would magine the car won't start(LOL) But really that sounds like it might be pretty neat, only problem I could see if is the battery does go dead you couldn't push start it (but most of us old lazy farts are runnin automatics anyway)

Jumper cables, or a battery jump box.

if you gonna go to that much trouble then put a line lock on it.

Cool concept, but does it pass inspection? And also, those power seat mechanisims arent waterproof. You might want to seal the assembly before it rains/snows.
