Fuel Inertia switch ?

As a fuel cutoff switch?
Maybe swap out the inertia switch with a hidden toggle switch?
Has anyone attempted this?

Thanks.

I've seen people talk about it on this forum many times but never seen anyone report of actually doing it.
Seems like a simple on-off switch; should be simple

Looks like a glorified "tilt" switch to me. A simple toggle switch should work as required.
See attachment.

As a "kill" switch?

I know a guy that used a floor mount dimmer switch for this, wired into the inertia switch wire, kind of a covert type thing. Who would know the difference with the floor switch, and easy to get to.
