Thread: trunk mounted battery short protection

Tweet

Don, my cutoff switch is mounted behind the rear license plate. It is hidden by the license plate and I remove the license plate at the strip. I've seen others that mount the switch just below the deck lid of the trunk or even through a taillight. One fellow I met last year drilled a hole through the center of his license plate and had the switch there...... pretty slick but I think I'll keep what I have because I didn't want the switch visible when on the road.

catsasswiring: sounds to me like you know what you're talking about when it comes to wiring. Can you comment on my previous idea of using a relay to cut alternator out to reduce load for racing? Would this idea be worth pursuing?
