I've seen it mentioned in some thread. What's the deal? Replace the cigar lighter by the button and connect the wires? How about security, you still need to put the key on ignition before pushing the button? I'd like some more info on this one =)

You still need to put the key to position 2
You can put the button whereever you like and yes its a case of cutting into the wires up to the back of the ignition

Is it very difficult to install? I've really never actually touched any wiring inside there =S

so you still gotta put they key in not really much point to it then??

my only point to fit it is that it would be a really cool mod =x

My dads Noble you have to still use the key and thats from the factory
The Mk1 focus RS you have to put the key in and use the button and thats from factory

bmw's are the same they use key and button. was thinking about doing this as its a cool little mod aswell and meant to be easy enough to do

To be fair it may be pointless, but how cool would it be pushing a button to start the engine....James Bond style!

this may help http://www.fordstownerssa.co.za/forums/viewtopic.php?f=75&t=24330

wow he makes it look so easy =S

looks just a case of joing to wires together tbh. hardest part is prob jus ruuning wire down to where you mount the button

lol ryt! i would want to place it instead of the cigarette lighter so not to complicate things =S Tomorrow i'll try removing the steering column see if i find the mentioned wires. If i do so, then we'll try this out! xD thanks for the post adam btw!

if you need the bits go to http://www.part-box.com/ford-power-push-start-button-p-17393.html or a ford dealer depending on price. will prob need the surround aswell im guessing

Do you think it would solve the starting problems?

As in trouble starting? no makes no difference to that
