I've read the "stay away from those overpriced gimmicks. use two $5 inline switches to your starter" threads. I've also read that, if a Revelco was cut somehow, with all the black wires, it would be a nightmare to restore.
I'd like my new truck to stay mine and not have it hacked up. Still trying to weigh the pros and cons.
Worst case, I'd rather have it disabled than stolen. Then it's just a repair bill. If they steal it, then even if it gets recovered, it'll probably be trashed.
Combine the Ravelco with an alarm, and the noise will ensure they don't have time to trash it or hack it up while trying to bypass it. Only practical way to steal one with a Ravelco would be to trailer/flatbed it, and a screaming alarm would make that impractical too (see also: gun and dog mentioned elsewhere).
Defense in depth is the key.
