    I used to wire in a switch for people that cut off the power to the fuel pump and hid it under the carpet or in another secret spot.. cheap and effective.

    Too many trucks and mods to list.. check builds
    wire up a kill switch to the fuel pump off the ground wire and hide it good but easily enough for you to actually use it.. thats what ALL of my cars have. even the ones with immobilizers.

    Good to see its back safe n sound though!

    It's complicated.
    I would ask the Police to run one of their drug sniffing dogs through the interior, and around the exterior and underside.

    You don't know what it's been used for, after it departed your possession.

    Do it, I got one of the “chip kills” you’ve got to put this chip in before the starter gets power. Connected it to my keys with a stretchy cord so when I pull my keys out the chip comes with, also a momentary push button to the starter is a good way to go, you can’t do that on the fuel pump because you’d have to hold the button the entire time you drive. If you do the fuel pump, put one really obvious switch on the dash and then one hidden switch that work in tandem.
