I had a start button in my EB and i would do the same thing.
Everytime i got in another car i would reach over for the button.

Would the button be suitable for installation to an EF/EL in the same manner I wonder? (without bypassing Smartlock?)

This seems pretty easy to do on the BA/BF of course, but it was designed with this model in mind

It's really hard to explain.
I could say it's the prestige, I could say it's sporty, but for me it's really one simple thing.
It's f**k hilarious watching people try to start and move your car for you :lol:

There's that. And there's the fact I test drove a Toxic green GT*, and own a Ego GT-P.


* and flogged the a*** outta it, sideway through an intersection, dragging a XR6T from a set of lights. I test drive thoroughly.
