I found a blank button... button thing

I know a fe of you were asking recently if it was possible to wire in a button to use as starter, well I was in the dealership today and found one I'd never seen.

ECO - It was on an Automatic

The order it would be on a sporting would be (I know you dont get sporting autos but hey)

BOOT - CITY - LOCK - HAZZARDS - ASR - ECO - BLANK

So it is possible to buy a working button for the blanks

Tom

Re: I found a blank button... button thing

it would be simple enough to wire in a starter button but whats the point? you still have to use the key to take steering lock off and for the key code,

and it would probably make little b4st4rds think that if they break in they will be able to start the car..

looks good but pointless...
