Do you still have to turn your key on our did you replace that functionality with the button?

:driving: Yes. I don't want anyone jumping in my car and taking off with my car. So I always make sure I lock the steering wheel when I get outta my car.. That way, I get in, put the key in, turn on the car while it unlocks the steering wheel and press the start button.

Can your car still be started with the key? Also when using the button, does any of the "won't start unless" features bypassed, like clutch in, or in neutral type stuff?

Yep. It works perfectly fine with the key and not pushing the button. I was considering bypassing the clutch but my shop was closing so I hurried up. :wave: :wave:
