Much cleaner but harder to install, what I call, a "Flip Flop" relay on the trigger wire for the pump relay or pump fuse.
A FF relay operates like any other relay except once it receives an impulse/energized (flips) it locks in that position until it receives another impulse then it flops and locks it that position. It doesn't stay energized, just needs a pulse. In the AV world it's like a A/B switch that switches coax cables etc......
I used one on my beamer to run the flashers when I upgraded the newer style switches that weren't backward compatible with the older model wiring.

This looks like a solid solution. How was the installation? Did you do it yourself?
Definitely
Newbie to this - what’s a brief description of how this wrks?
They came to my house and installed it, very easy. The installation is clean. It looks like factory under the hood. Took him about 2.5 hrs
Think of it like a multi kill switch... 16 wires coming out the back thru a steel conduit, past the fire wall. Then they go to 8 different points, no idea where...
Before you start the ignition, you plug in the connector, and it completes all the connections and then the car can start. Each plug is unique so they aren't interchangeable
Gotcha
Makes makes total sense now
Any idea if these do anything for warranty claims?
Did your dealership install or the company itself ? Like an authorized installer type situation?
Thank you for sharing...checked-out their website. Ingenious. Impressive history on their website: Zero stolen vehicles...millions of installs (commercial + non-commercial)...over a 40-year period...
I think I’m doing this. Questions:
**What was the total $$$?
**Do you get two “keys”?
**And if a key is lost what would need to happen?
Thanks!
The above video was referencing this product as being Superior.
Probably right. Sad.

Not sad at all, had you read the post .......... it was recovered, he has possession, it had some electrical wire damage and he has started the fix
I'm having the IGLA installed by professionals ( the one in the video above) on Monday it's $1,600
I'll report back if anyone has an interest in this please let me know.

I thought of doing the exact same thing. I also never use the home links because someone could break a side window and push a button and come in your house and do whatever.
There's a video on YouTube I used where you connect a momentary contact button for the garage door opener. Solder a couple little wires in there and hook them to that momentary push button. I drilled an 1/8" hole in the lower plastic trim under the dash for the button. The key fob was thus hidden behind that plastic piece.
My keys sits on the shelf by the front door so after reading this the first time, I put a piece of aluminum foil up there and just fold it in half with my key fob in there and that blocks signal.
I know this cause I went right out to my vehicle and it wouldn't unlock the vehicle. I unfolded the tin foil and it worked.
So now I'm thinking maybe putting a small little box up there that will hold our key fobs and lining it with aluminum foil.

Yeah, I saw all those also. It's all made by ilga and it's an Russian company, I don't trust them, likely all just bad propaganda they're putting out
I can't think of a single modern product that Russia made that's worth buying... just saying...
You can see some of those ilga ravelco videos only have 5 wires connected which isn't true
Ravelco is an American company based on simple kill switch ideas, sure, it could be bypassed, but its gonna take them a really long time, and doubt they want to deal with that headache
I figured they're better than nothing. Are there any other solutions you can recommend?
