hey boggtown,
i think that push start button is sooo cool. so how does it work. do you need a key still. i was thinking about this the other day how ecactly it works. i think you commented in a post last week, and had mentioned something about doing the push start....and it got me thinking.
so how does it work?
looks great, not sure that you even need a backing plate. but i'm not sitting there in the car, you would know what's best or what it's missing.

Ya, the only thing Id do button wise is buy an s2000 button, which would be another $40. But at least all the wirings done, itd be a simple button swap.

Hahaha I have an idea for you,this would seperate you from the pack and give your car it's own touch instead of the traditional "race"/"go"/"start" button. Why don't you install a blank black button then get a clear sticker with this smiley face,  ,and put it on it. Man that would be funny!

Why not go ahead and get a "self destruct" button... lol. A "Panty Remover" button, along with "NOS" or "Go Baby Go" would be funny.

I was just discussing the push button start with someone the other day. I drove a BMW E90 that had this key that looked like just the fob without the actual key. I looked at it for a second and then went out to the car. Found a hole it fit in and waited, nothing was happening, then I saw the "start button". Felt like an idiot but, I had never seen that before. I work at a body shop so I had spectators, that were laughing.
But, instead of that pesky one turn of the key, now it's lengthened to more steps. I don't get it. Lexus is pretty cool that you just have to have the key in your pocket and it'll read it. I just wonder when it got so inconvenient to twist the key.

Yeah, in my wife's lexus the key never leaves your pocket or purse. I find it incredibly convenient. When you approach the car, it senses the key, when you touch the handle it unlocks and opens, when you push the button it starts and drives.
If I had to use a key and a button, I would question the throw-back technology.
