So is my large ***** but I don't cut a extra hole to get it out when the fly works. Same as I don't need a button to start the car when the key works. I keed I keed. OP if you want to do it do it. Its your money its your car and you should do what you want. Just do it right to avoid the fire. Let us know how it goes. Maybe post a video.

Jets or summit has a keyless ignition kit. You keep the thin in your pocket, like on the new vette's and like the keyless go system on Mercedes. It's $600, and then a start button is necessary. I have thought about doing it. What a good way to spend $600. It would be very cool.
