neo Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 where abouts have you fitted the button ? and yeah Quote
Removed Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 one of the Italian members has had his fitted too, not too keen on it personally, there's really no clear place to put it imo Quote
Guest prescience Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 How does this integrate with the cars security system - conceptually it would appear higher risk but I'm sure that angle has been covered. But how? Quote
Removed Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I'm guessing here, but still probably need the key to start it? Quote
Liam's Z Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I'm guessing here, but still probably need the key to start it? Similar to the S2000 Quote
Guest prescience Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 I'm guessing here, but still probably need the key to start it? Oh really, so it is just a gimmick then Quote
kevgreen16 Posted July 30, 2006 Author Posted July 30, 2006 I'm guessing here, but still probably need the key to start it? Oh really, so it is just a gimmick then yes it still needs key, and security still the same , fitted it just behind ash tray on centre console, i agree there is not much space anywhere else for it to go, it just a gadget thats all.

lomoto Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 wont it **** you off eventually though?? switching on with a key, then fiddling for the button Quote

Nick U Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 Interesting..... How difficult was that to do? From what I have seen of them there are loads of different types, probably comes down to personal taste I guess. Quote
Liam's Z Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 actually it looks good! But what's the point??? Quote
Sarnie Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 actually it looks good! But what's the point??? That was gonna be my next post It looks ok, but whats the point if you still need the key. I love my gadgets but it has to have some kind of benefit. Correct me if Im wrong but you stick the key in the ignition, you don't turn it, turn to your left and then press the said button to start it? Quote
Neil_H Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 actually it looks good! But what's the point??? That is the point I had an S2000 and the push start was cool. No point to it really as you still need the key, just makes it feel like you're in 'proper' car. Makes it easier to restart if you stall it too, not that I ever did *nervouslaugh* Quote
Liam's Z Posted July 30, 2006 Posted July 30, 2006 How bloody difficult is it to find then hazards never mind that stupid start button Poll it then P.s 06 owners no comment!!! Quote

Correct me if Im wrong but you stick the key in the ignition, you don't turn it, turn to your left and then press the said button to start it? well say you have stopped to talk or whatever, or your wife has nipped into shop, you turn off engine perhaps, well when you come to restart you just press the button,, maybe some people just carnt find the button, , but seriously each to there own, i like it anyway.

michaelwr Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 The wife would never find anything that small This is more suitable - an elavator button Quote
Liam's Z Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 Kev, if my girlfriend nips into the shops me battery would be dead Point taken tho Quote
Guest prescience Posted July 31, 2006 Posted July 31, 2006 If you like it then good on yer. Just one last question, do you have to keep the foot on the clutch when firing up too? Quote
