I don't know. That would be more of a question for someone who knows more about remote starts. I think remote start cars can start without a key.
It might be able to be done, but I would have no idea how.
The the switch mentioned above is only used to disable the connection that is normally made when the key is turned all the way forward. Basically, it makes you use the button. I don't think that would work the way you want it to. Not to mention, your car would be a pretty high theft risk.

Jack Bauer - What a great modification! I had one on my Sandrail and loved it. I tried to link to the PDF for console removal instructions and was not able to do so. Can you help me out? My user name/email is: jheaton88@sbcglobal.net Thank you.

I just need a bit of a walk thorough not on setup but the actual function of the button. I can not find a video of what i am looking for. I want to set up a push button start with a switch to deactivate the need for the key. If I just want to stat the accessories just push the button? If I want to start the car hold brake and push button? If I want to turn the car off just press the button again?

Ford Racing now offers a start button for the Mustang. I think it is from the Ford GT.
I think I still like the Honda S2000 button better, as it sits in the hole nicely and has the chromed ring, but look for yourself.

How is your baby? Still have the Power Wheels Mustang ready for the little one? My son still can't reach the pedals. Maybe by Christmas!
I've noticed that quite a few cars, both high end and main stream (like the Altima), are now equipped with a start button.

Yeah, I'm seeing more and more cars w/ the start button. I still use mine, it's kinda fun.

Glad to hear the little guy is well. Teething, huh? Is it bugging him much?
I have little choice but to use my button, since I wired it that way. Passengers still think its cool.
What is this euro button you're talking about by the way?

What the heck??? There was a black button with a red Ford oval and 'Start' on it that was posted earlier, and avail on a car overseas. What happened to the post(s)?

Question??
I have an S2000 starter button on order and plan on setting it up the way you would with the Latemodel Restoration Supply kit. The only thing I am not sure of is what connects to pin number 2 on the s2000 button as shown in the diagram below. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated.

I just went through the entire thread, great info, was wondering if people could post pics of theirs so I know which Id like to go with; unless there are only the 4 options: the pepboys, the ignite, the 50resto and fordgt...am I missing any? Out of those I like the looks of the 50resto one the best but would like something that lit up as well....any suggestions? was gonna go get one today but Ill wait the weekend.

I was just flipping through the MossMustang catalog and they've got one too, similar to the one I put in. If I were to do it again, I probably would go w/ the 50resto one. Don't forget about the button from the Ford GT.

Go with the 50resto/Honda button. It looks great, and I'm noticing the some cars featured in the Mustang mags are using these too. And yes, the lettering lights up red.
