Does this opening have a purpose
I offen wonder why Ford left this odd shaped whole in the center console just left if the headphone jack. Does it serve a purpose?

This. Had to use it to adjust the brake on my 2006 when it started to become loose a couple years back.

How hard is it to rig a kill switch in an 11+? Seems pretty straight forward. Id like it so if someone got a hold of my keys, they could only start it if they knew about the switch, for which I'd use Emblem Pro's switch panel. (An option for the OP; see link below.) The panel was missing in my '13 from the factory as well, but I didnt even notice it for about a month, which makes me think it'd be a great place for a kill. I just wouldn't label the switch. And though someone could eventually figure it out, the longer it takes, the more time I have to catch their azz. Can't you just run a switch to your starter solenoid?

I just drilled a hole in the stock piece and snapped in a $2 switch. Its not a killswitch for the whole car, but something else. Looks factory, and I'm sure would be pretty easy to rig up a similar setup to kill the starter. Easy to get throught he firewall, by either drilling a hole next to the soundtube or just use the soundtube hole and a little silocone to make the seal tight. You can just push the wire under the console and fish it through, couldnt be easier.
EDIT: or maybe to the clutch pedal would be easier. Guess I should grab one of those wiring diagram books off eBay.
