You will need two methods of immobilising the car for IVA, One is the ignition key switch and the other is usually the built in steering column lock. These are normally all one unit on the donor vehicle.
A new unit complete will probably cost around £100
Aftermarket immobiliser with fitting and required certificate (for IVA and insurance) will cost upwards of £150!
