get the pivot, it's plug and play almost with your turbo timer harness

 

lol @ biometrics.. i didnt have a choice to put in my starter button, so dont flame me for that.. but i hooked mine straight up to the starter.. super easy, then you run the wire into your car through the shifter hole(technical term right there) and the place i put the button is where the cigerette light is.. just take off your radio sorround and unscrew/break off the lighter. then screw your button in right there.. i did have a problem with my starter tho. i dont think it was because of the button tho (cold starts are a b*tch for me =\ ).

 

you know... no one would EVER suspect that start button being there....


IF IT DIDN'T HAVE THE WORDS "ENGINE START" ON THE DAMNED THING!

paint it black and no one will ever notice it! that way, it can be a security feature and a good one at that.

 

Hm. What if we use our cigarette lighter? :-P

I mean... I have to plug my inverter & radar detector in *somewhere*!

-=Russ=-

 

lol You havent hard wired thows in? I place my radar jammer at the top left of the window and run the wire down the inside of A frame. Inverter hard wired to.

Pics /vid you say. I may be able to fees this finaly I am going with my grandma to get her a digital camera so I would imagin I could take some pics that day with it.

 

picked up the security starter so it's cool...

sweat feature

 

how much was it?

 

Here's what I want to have: Remote key location. I will leave the current ignition on the steering column, but only to lock the wheel. The actual keyed switch for turning on the electrical system will be hidden somewhere else in the car. Take that, thieves!

 

You mean somewhere you can easily reach from the driver's seat, yet a location no thief would ever think to look. Where would that be exactly?

 

Did we really need another thread on this???? Is not the one in the archive and the 20 others enough.

I guess the ricers decided there was not enough threads on this

 

how many theives actually "hot wire" a car? They usually break the ign mechanicism(sp?) and crank the car like usual, that relieves the problem of the ign lock.

 

Actually, what I was thinking was to put the actual keyed ignition switch where the cigarette lighter is, and mount the key to the **** of the cigarette lighter. Just push it in and turn it.

 

IceMark I wrote this in 03-03-05 at that point there was no writeup in the archives. This one just got dug back up when someone was posting ?'s about this.

 

this isnt 'another thread' icemark, just the revival of an old one.

 

why modify a car at all ... why dont we all just drive kia rio's

just ****** with ya, imo it gives a car a more euro sport car feel. I think that the write-ups where very well done (good job guys) hopefully i'll be able to install one on my car soon.

btw i had a friend that had his key snap when he went to start his car (but i have a strange feeling thats not a common problem

 

I had to rescue my girls FC one time b/c she broke the key in the door. Anyhow this thread needs to go I need to redo it. There is a flaw in its design unless you use 2 relays and I came up with a much betor design that acts like a built in fuel cut unflooder for S4's.

 

hmmm have you posted that yet??? i found 2 relays that i think will work (i think they say 30-40a)

 

No I have not rewrote it. Maybe in a few weeks.

You need two 30a 4pole relays identical to the photos provided. Wonkothesane has a two relay writeup if you want to try and figure out yourself what changes need to be made to keep the keyd ignition working proporly have at it.

 

id just get a removable steering wheel so then you can do away with the column-mount ignition. Move the ignition to the dash and put the button under the little panel next to the security light. Press it and it flips up, revealing the infamous 'little red button'. if im not mistaken the F1 has a setup like this. and lets face it: the F1 is just plain cool

 

Here is my push button start..



Though it was out of necessity, not really done on purpose. My ignition switch was going out, so instead of getting a new ignition, I jsut rewired the starter solenoid. It gets its power from teh cigarette lighter, with no relay

 

Or a fuse. Good job you will soon burn your button up leaving you stranded and or catch your car on fire.

 

Well, its a 30A switch, so if anything goes it will be the wiring. How many amps does the solenoid pull? Anyway, i noticed with the new setup, the starter motor turns a lot faster than it used too

 

Hi can you please help me with more elaborate pictures. You can e-mail it to me at esjoson1126@yahoo.com. Thanks I will greatly appreciate your help.

Thanks,
EJO

 

Can anybody please post a more simplified push button starter with pictures.
