While I wait for my guage pods to arrive, I finally worked up the nerve to install this. Circuitry is not my forte but I read up enough on it to give it a shot. It took me all afternoon but it not only works, it looks good!



You can tell a little from the picture but the "Engine Start" lights up in a dim red. I plan on changing the bulb to a bright white led. Some other weekend maybe.

Very nice, does it require anything special to work? Like does the key have to be in and in the on position?

Yes, you need the key and in the start position.

With the key. You just turn the key to the off position as you normally would. The button only starts the engine. If you hit the button again while the car is running, it would be like you turning the key to start the car when the car is already running. Not good.
