You have to use the key in the s2000 as well...it's a novelty thing...I dig it, thought bout doin it with mine as well...it is an extra step, but I mean, unless ur haulin ___ trying to get away from some broads husband, or u just vandalized something...who cares...it's sick!

No i did have to ammend the hole a little bit to get the button in there. It is a tight fit, but an exacto knife should take care of it. The hardest part (so far) of the installation was taking out the lighter. The actuall hardest part is going to be the wiring.

I will post some pictures of my car later. I haven't taken too many pics since i haven't really modded my car. Looks pretty similar to alot of your cars.

Isn't there one that requires you to carry a chip so the push button only works when the chip is in range?

I am confuse here. In order to start the car you need the key since they have the special chip inside that sends a signal. So are you putting the key in, turn then do the push button start or do you have a way to bypass the chip signal
to start the car ??

yea, the BMW 745i. nice car i work on one a couple times. it also has a sporttronic shifter on the steering column. put the key in your pocket and push the button, it's so slick.

It's called the 2004 Prius





I had one before my tC. You carry a transponder that NEVER leaves your pocket and the push button works. (Plus, I think the Prius start button LOOKS BETTER and it's a toyota thing so you aren't making your car a bastard by putting honda parts in it...)

BTW, the Prius in this pic set the current hybrid speed record at 130mph

I made that up just now but you all are welcome to use it, add it to your sig's etc. I only ask for a kick back if you market it.
