    Hey, has anyone ever tried to hook up an electronic starter relay that can be tied to your car's remote? I know they make a relay that can be switched on and off by a button on the relay itself. I have seen videos where the technition used one to prevent from blowing a fuse.

    Tell me if I am wrong or going down the rabbit hole I shouldn't be going down.

    The reason why I am asking is my youngest daughter's car was stolen a couple weeks ago and they made a mess of the ignition switch and steering column. I am trying to make it so that she doesn't have to lift the hood to remove the relay everytime she wants to drive her car. I hope this all makes sense???

    Ty as always
