neutral saftey switch!!!! HAHA

First of all, I couldn't start my car. Nothing would happen. I was getting mad and I knew my starter was good. Finally i thought of the neutral saftey switch. I looked under my dash, where my fuses are and light. Well, I saw a switch and wondered what it was for. The switch was very hard to find and you can't see it, only feel it. Anyway, I fliped it the other way and it started right up. I figured someone hooked it up so no one could steel the car. I thought it was awsome. Anyone else do this?? or seen it done?? Now I can leave my t-tops off and not worry about it being stolen. I must of hit it just right with my foot and it flipped the other way. so now, when I have a problem starting and nothing happens, I know what the problem probably is.

umm, leaving your t tops off isn't a matter of your car getting stolen, it's a matter of the stuff in your car magicly leaving it. the switch idea, not new idea at all.
