start button, info Options

dudes a start button is a gimmic, that is it. If you do it, it is for show and a gimmic. That's it.

well, I have something like that on my 1987 celica GT, but is not a button it's a hidden on/off switch, so before you start the car you have to turn it to on position, if not I won't start ( security purposes )

ok Dustin there is something that I dont understand. Why would you have to hook up a wire to an all time power and an ACC power. Why both? And when you say the black and white wire in the ignition do you mean behind the dash console....or.....? I've been thinking about doing this little gimmick for awhile.

The black/white wire is located behind the actual ignition, here is a pic (from Coomer's install giude)



I found that it is kinda tough to get to these easily (you have to remove a few dash plastics ect to get good access to it), so I followed that wire through the harness and there is an easy place to access it. Directly behind your clock/stereo there is a wire harness taped up that runs strait up and down. Cut the black tape off and there is the black/white wire with a bunch of others Just be carefull not to cut the wires when you are getting the tape off

I have big hands and getting to that wire behind the ignition sucked for me. Behind the clock/radio, there is soo much room to work

about the all time and the ACC, I need to clarify, it isn't ACC (first click, radio on ect..), it is when the ignotion is in the "on" position (second click). Why you need both, I don't know exactly. I would assume for the same reason there is all time power going to your ignition stock from Toyota I just followed the directions and also what another member had told me (John - Mynzeyes). It works just fine with no problems.
