Default Killswitch ?s

Where did you guys mount your battery killswitches? What switch did you use? I tried the search but didnt find anything, but I have a hard time believing this hasnt been asked before. Pics would be great. Thanks

I am gonna need to do this soon myself. I have heard of people mounting them behind the license plate to hide it for around town driving. Then when they go to the track they take off the plate.

Mine is mounted behind my licence plate. I bought an old gm flip up bracket and shimmed it out to clear the switch. Then all I have to do is flip the licence to get to the switch.

I do but not of the flip up. That was the second design. The first was using some pvc tubing. I had to unscrew it to get to the switch. That was the reason I changed to the flip up. Here's the old set up











I'll try and get some pics of the flip up this weekend.

put ours on the flat right in front of the tag between the tail lights. It is a flaming river push button.

Ok cool thanks guys. I might space the plate out and then just take the plate off at the track.
