I went many years before getting around to installing this one. And I would say that most Cobra owners with a TKO don't bother hooking up the switch in to the starter motor circuit, even though it is already installed in the transmission by Tremec. Top loaders don't have the switch to begin with.

The reasons I installed it are that 1) I have become a little lazy about just reaching in and starting the car up while standing outside the car during engine tune up and tweaking; and 2) I saw a scary video of a guy doing just that and the car started right up in gear and drove off without him. Yes, he was "positive" that he had left it in neutral. I also, from time to time, leave the key in the ignition at car shows. Yes, I know that's dumb.
