it would be even better v8 supercar style...not possible for a reasonable cost in an au tho...having a flick switch and then push the button instead of turn the key to on, press the button

I have done this as well,and vegabass has also done it for an EL.

I got my button from ebay for $10.00
Key also has to be in and in the on position for the car to start,is a pain as I only drive the car on w/ends and always forget about the start button.

haha that's funny how you forget about the button.
speaking of V8 Supercars i would love to have that mod where you press the button and 4 stilts lift the car up when they're in the pits. Looks very cool, would love to have them

no,you push it in until car starts,then release it.You still turn the car off with key.If anyone else does this,ring insurance company and get approval first.I'm with racq and they had no probs with mod at all and wote it on policy so am covered in case of theft etc...

you don't actually have a button for that, if you watch closely, they actually plug a compressed air line in which activates them...you could do it with a switch tho, you'd just have to hook it up to an air compressor inside the car, either that or a tank like trucks have with a compressor run off the engine

Hmmm, thanks for correcting me but i'm sure ive seen one where u just press the button and like u said the air compressor, inside just lifts the car, it's very cool

cheers.
