I ended up going with the ididit Pro-Lite in my 69 Firebird so now I need a start button solution.

My #1 concern is the right kind of button for what *I* want. I want to be able to push it once and it be the same as putting the key into the "on" position". Push it the second time and it crank the engine. Then the opposite, push to shutdown the engine, then again to turn everything off. I don't care about any other bells and whistles beyond just that specific button function.

Any ideas where I can get a start button setup like this? With the plug and harness hopefully.

Thanks!!

Alex

Did you ever find anything?

Not that was already made on the market. I discussed a custom option with a couple places and we all came to the conclusion that since I planned on a PDM in the future, to either do it now or wait. So I bought a small 8-channel PDM w/keypad for $600 until I'm ready to do a proper RacePak for $3K and am ready to do my entire vehicle wiring prior to body/paint in a couple years.

I think that's how most of them operate now, just have to clutch in or press the brake to start.

I'm interested in the new iKey feature that Apple has. Hoping that there will be an after market kit that integrated this so I can just hop in with my phone or watch and I'm done!
