Push button start?

raef02 · 06-02-2011, 05:48 PM

Has anyone tried to add the push button start feature in the Gen 2 Insight? There are some in ebay like this:
BLUE UNIVERSAL PUSH START ENGINE IGNITION BUTTON | eBay

Just wondering if anyone has installed one and how complicated it will be to do it by yourself. Might try it myself but would like to know if anyone has it already. Also will this affect anything on the Gen 2 Insight? Is it good to add this?

Thanks!

It just popped in my mind that the insight has the security feature so I'm not sure how will this work considering we need the Honda key to start the car. Anyway, maybe someone out there has tried and installed it and has a workaround. Just interested.

Wow! That one looks really nice! Little bit pricey but maybe worth it. Do you know if it will work on the insight? Does anyone here have this kit?

I want just the reverse. I want a push button stop.

I knew a guy with one and thought it was cool. Most of my cars and other cars i drive still use a key, so it would cause me some possible problems in am emergency situation I needed to turn off the motor. That and the fact the prius uses a push button.
