Cars that are towed probably are hard to steal and are very valuable. Most thieves break into cars and drive away with them.

If your car is stick, you can use a micro switch. Cut the wire on your clutch pedal then connect your micro switch and hide it where ever you want. Keep in mind, some clutch pedal have two switch, one to start the car (pressing the clutch pedal) and one for the cruise control. I bought the micro switch with wire on Frys i think, electonic store in California when i was stationed in San Diego. This is what i did on my 99 prelude and 95 civic hatch. Have fun
