Anyone Tried a Push Button Start?

[Brandonhughes]

I've finally got some extra money and am thinking about doing a couple mods on my 2012 Ford Mustang GT. I'm thinking about changing out my ignition switch and adding a Push Button. I'm wondering if anyone has done this mod? I saw some kits on eBay but they look way too cheap and I don't trust Chinese crap anyway. I also found a couple systems made here in the states, one is by Flaming River who I know and trust; https://www.flamingriver.com/rfid-keyless-ignition-systems and another by www.digitalguarddawg.com/auto . They totally look like the same systems to me just with different names on the boxes. a big price difference though. Has anyone done this mod and used any of these systems? I'm wondering how hard they are to install?
The Guard Dawg company has a bunch of cool start buttons, https://www.digitalguarddawg.com/ikey-start-button-options-2 I can do basic wiring but don't want to get in over my head. Any thoughts or suggestions?

Hi Brandon. I think you need to post you question here. This is the forum for the 6th gen S550 (2015-2023).

No problem. I just noticed you had a very nice S550 collection. Welcome to the forum. Post some pics when you have a minute.

For a moment, I was like - wait, did I read that post correctly… w h u t ….. give me what he’s on, because there isn’t any S550 that didn’t come with a push button start…. LMFAO…

Doesn't matter if it's an S550 or S197, this will have to install like a remote start unit to work properly. I haven't done one of those now in over a decade so I assume the CAN interface modules are a bit easier to work with but this still won't be for beginners. Especially when you consider it isn't a stereo, it takes out the whole car if something goes wrong leaving you walking home. You would be best served to consider taking it to a local audio shop and having it installed by somebody experienced in remote starts.

My '14 had the Flaming River setup. I legitimately never once had an issue and it was a mod I was happy with.
