Besides a car alarm, anyone have any good ideas for convertible security......like fuel shut offs, or electric lock-outs ??

The one i have was $15 off ebay, I dont think it is hooked up right though, You need diodes hooked up too, so it falses every day. with the other sensor disconnected it works great. its a nice little security measure..
