Kill switch!
I decided to put one in because I knew someone who had his Jeep stolen. He had many upgrades done and since he didn't tell his insurance about all things he did to the Jeep SOL.
On my older car (69 datsun 510) we just took a positive from the cable. That worked fine, but since my Jeep might be seeing more mud and water I did not want to go though the fire wall. With little research I found out that some people are useing the power for the fuel pump. Yeah why not? This way I don't have to waste my time splicing into the ignition harness.
There are two green wires with a white strips in the driver's side wire bundle. From what I found the smaller gauge green wire is the one that goes to the fuel pump (I may be wrong though in the gauge size). I doubled check the wire I cut was the right by trying to start the Jeep. After that I spliced in my switch by using 14gauge wires and a 20 amp switch.

Installed eautoworks headlight harness.. Easy very easy, I have no fog lights so I didn't have to deal with that issue. The hardest thing was, making a proper ground. I didn't have any wire brushes ( Was visiting my dad ) I had to use a flat head screw driver. They work so no complaints from me. When I have some more time I will clean them up.

FYI I picked up the harness for $18.00.

Finally got my Jeep.. Its 98 limited with a 187k miles on it, bone stock. First thing going to do is a DIY bedliner then lift kit!

A little about my plans for my jeep.

I am planning to run 33s mud terrains, 35s are too much tire for me, but I start off with all terrains until I or we get another car. Mud terrains are a softer compound tire versus the all terrains. Then I was planning to upgrade with ford 9's and probably run air or electric lockers in with a least 4.11s or 4.50s. Up front will also be a ford 9" or 8.25 (have not decided yet). Then stroke the motor to a 4.6 or 4.4

More to come.
