What is that? Is it like Lo-Jack?
I have a little module under the dash of my 02 by the steering wheel with a little red light and a hole with a metal sleeve in it. I've seen this on other Mustangs but I have no idea what it is. Any clue?

Naw dude, that's some sort of kill switch that some dealers are installing now.. for instance, say you have bad credit.. to get a lower interest rate, they install that thing on your car. If you're late with your payments, they try to contact you.. if they can't, then BLZZT! Your car won't start until you make payment arrangements.. keeps you current on your car payments and keeps the dealer from jacking your car ( repo )..My brother sales cars, so he gave me the 4 1 1 on this..

Whoa... don't know if I like that. I'm glad mine doesn't have it.
