Wierd question. Are you thinking of using this for security reasons?

Ya it will be for security reasons, I also have a tracker fitted but I want more done incase of theft! Would you have any idea how to do this or is it too complicated with the computers? Any other suggestions if they manage to break in? Thanks for the help!

A normally-closed relay fitted to the proper power wire would take care of the problem. Shouldn't affect any of the computers. You would just have a switch under the dash or somewhere. When you flip the switch, the relay opens, so no power can go thru it.
