I know you’re joking and I too wish that a manual trans was just that. I was a bit surprised at how many of the import/tuner cars are manual.

I’m wanting to do a mild build with some modern features and use it as a Dailey. Single and I kids, so why not.

I’ve been doing a lot of research on this as I want to put it in my 69 Camaro. I found easyguard. They have a bunch of push start buttons to choose from and a bunch of key fobs to choose from as well. They sell the kits on Amazon and it has 4+ star reviews. Also there’s a bunch of YouTube install and review videos. At $125 it won’t break the bank either.

The EC002 kit on Amazon has the regular black start button and a few key fobs. eBay has much more options in terms of start buttons and key fobs but the item is located in China. I messaged one of the sellers on eBay and they agreed to swap start buttons and key fobs for no extra charge.

Here’s a link to their website:

This is the kit I’m planning to buy on eBay, but I asked them to swap to the red start button for same cost:

I like this! Curious how challenging it would be to install on my Foxbody.

According to the YouTube videos. Seems pretty simple. Just 6 ignition wires

If I was to employ a system like that I would make sure I have a good backup plan and hardware installed in the event of a failure.

That’s my take. Wa hoping there was something out there, but whatever. A key works just fine.

i had one on my 68. I wont have one on the bird. My pedal got stuck under the mat at full throttle in 3rd gear. Having to press the brake to turn the car off while pulling 7000 rpm goin down the road took a couple of years off my life. lol

Well that seals it! Won't be going that route!!

Just got the kit, the key fobs are made really nice. They feel heavy and are made of metal. I quickly read through the instructions because I was concerned about what a member said that his throttle got stuck and he had to slam on the brakes while pushing the button to turn the car off. So this kit, at any point if you press and hold the button for 3 seconds will shut everything off.
