My 230SL has had an immobiliser fitted by a previous owner, and to be honest I find it a total pain to use & would like to have it removed. I think that it is
one of these units.
My 230SL is kept in a locked garage in a low crime rural area of the UK, and is rarely left unattended. I'd like to either fit a self arming "switch" hidden under the dash (one that does not require a fob widget or a key to deactivate the immobiliser), or use a steering wheel "crook lock", or use nothing at all.
The car also has an isolator switch located deep within the footwell -
something similar to this. I could perhaps use it on the rare occasions that I feel the need for raised protection, but as it disconnects the battery I have to re-enter the radio security code every time that the red key is removed & so it is not ideal for every day use.
.
What do others use to secure their SL? Any suggestions?
