i have a Honda S2000 Push button i'll sell somebody for this mod. I bought it new for $50 shipped. Will take $40 shipped on it. I was gonna do this mod to my '96Z28 but sold it,for the car in sig, before i got it done. i think it's a cool mod and it is a little extra but what's 1 more second to have something different then most cars.

the new mazdas has the same mercedes style key fob. just as long as your close it will unlock/lock and if your setting in it you dont need the key, just turn the switch. im sure you can rig something up, anything is possible.

I'd be game for something like this. Still use a "S2000 type of push button" but have a module that senses the key. You probably need the complete ignition circuit and all the applicable materials.

Anybody work at a Mercedes dealer that could research this?????

i'm thinking on the new caddies you don't need a key niether. you just have to have the key fab in your pocket. also on the remote starts will the car move if you start it with the remote?

if you wire it just like its supossed to be and you wire the push button like it is also. then you should have no probs. if you are putting it on an auto it wont move they have neutral safety switch on them. and i believe that on standards (m6) they have a switck on the e-brake. most all shops will not install one on a manual trans though.

if your question is about push buton start robman it depends on what your system is linked to, essintially a push part start just connects a relay off the power and ignition wires and 2 grounds off that relay go to the pushbutton (bypassing the ignition function of the key) you will still need the key to turn the car on to get power to it but cant start the engine without pushing the button itself.

now can you still start your car with a key as the system sets??
if so then i dont think it would affect you, but my question then would be if you have remote start why bother with a push button??

i wanted to bypass the v.a.t.s altogether and put a switch to get the power and then push the button to get her going but never really looked into it.
