Before you go and cut all wiring, what is the reason behind this?

Security or looks?

Security, just put a switch for the fuel pump feed. For looks, don't do it. You're gonna have to cut wires, disable the steering wheel lock, and if you go to resell it, people aren't going to want that.

Not trying to be a douche, just giving my $.02.
