If you're worried, add a toggle switch on the ground side, and put it under the dash. Will act as a reminder, and also act as simple theft protection. Car won't start unless you flip the switch to ground side. Once started, you can flip it back, no harm when engine is running.

What's wrong with the original?

Yep, you can permanently ground the NSS wire. Just be careful, engine will turn over in any gear. Accidently left mine in drive, when I hit the key, it started and moved forward, luckily nothing in front.

Never heard this before, why not?

Very nice!

Thx so much for the response and info. You're always such a wealth of information. Much appreciated

C10? Focus man, focus! :) Keep at it, having fun is all that matters.

I like to get opinions on what this cap might be worth. I'm pretty sure it came off my 70 Challenger. Thoughts?

Well I guess I'll be digging through my boxes in the garage...... Been using an aftermarket locking cap for the last 20yrs.

The plastic control panel on dash is different. Duct under dash is the same.

Agreed, that's where I'd start. Measure voltage to coil/ballast resistor while trying the key. Disconnect connector on column and you can do it yourself. Ignore stuff at bottom, that's for a 3G swap.

Are Cuda and Challenger different?

Thanks for the update, I'll probably pick that tool up too.

Good looking car, what part of FL?

I put a dash cap on 20yrs ago and it looked great. Got a wild hair and bought a redone dash for $800, 10yrs ago. Dash cap was nicer, no comparison. I'm seeing dashes are now $2k, no way I'd pay that.
