Remote hood lock

[wild70stang]

Due to Los Angeles car theft history, I was wondering if there is any good remote trunk locks that I can purchase with minimal or no drilling. I was considering a 87-00 mustangs remote trunk lock but I wasnt sure if there isnt anything else that would be better for my stang. I already have a built in alarm system with a kill switch. I just need to keep theifs from jump starting my engine by simply opening the hood.

there was a hood lock on the market that also had an ignition kill switch built in. i want to say it was made by autoloc but i really dont remember.

I'm not quite sure which you're asking about... are you asking about a hood lock or a trunk release? In either case, check out these from the junkyard engineering projects on my site:

Bolt-in electric trunk release: http://groups.msn.com/DBsMustang/trunklatch.msnw

Bolt-in cable hood release: http://groups.msn.com/DBsMustang/hoodrelease.msnw

Both should work for your '70 just as well as they do for mine.

Hope this helps...

Which one??? The trunk release? Or the hood release? Just curious.

I've got a hood release that has the ignition kill that i'd sell. You have to drill a hole in your firewall and mount the pushbutton under the dash. PM me if interested.
