I'll talk to my old man. Maybe its because mopar ignition systems are much simpler than GM but it should still be the same concept. He didn't wire up relays to his push button.

The need for a relay depends on what kind of switch you are using. If you are using something like the one in the Jeg's link, there should be no need for a relay. If you are using something that is designed for low amperage, I would use a relay. My question is this, however: wiring up a switch to the starter does not eliminate the key. You would still need to turn the key on, then push the switch. What's the point of doing that? Why would someone want to add another step to start the car?

The setup I posted the link to eliminates the existing keyed setup. That's a true keyless pushbutton start system like you would see in some newer vehicles. You just get into the car and push the start button. As long as you have the proximity fob on you or in the car, the car will start.
 
I was thinking more along the lines of the newer cars that don't need a key. The push button turns everything on, ignition, accessory and starter. I've done hundreds of remote starts. I'm sure I can come up with something. Maybe even come up with an easy to install kit to sell to some of you guys. No key needed. Hold brake, press button and there you go.

Did you ever come up with anything on this kit?

1: Don't let that stereo shop touch your car, they're retards
2: There are a few companies out there making a product that uses RFID (like newer cars), with a push button start.
Here's one:

It's a little pricy, but I'm sure there are a few option out there. It looks like you can bypass a key altogether with this type of setup and have some additional security.
thats badd *ss

No not yet. Sorry I've been kinda busy but I'll be coming up with something as soon as I drop that 455 in. That should be this summer.

I was just asking because I'm working on the exact same thing right now. I been talking to a company over seas about ordering a push button kit instead of making one. They have The regular push button kit that function just like the newer cars but it dont have the RFID that unlock the doors when you walk up to the car & they have the RFID kit also. I'm going to try the regular kit to see if I like it before I get the RFID kit

This kit has 4 modes

ACC-ON-START-OFF

1. ACC. Get in the car & press the button one time, your accessories will turn on

2. ON. Press the button again & its like turning the key to the on position in your car. The dash lights & everything else will power up.

3. OFF If you press the button again the system will shut everything off.

If you were to get into the car, Press the brake (with the car in P) then the button the car would fire until it start up. It's the same to shut the car off. The car have to be in park then you press the button for 1 second then the engine would shut down.

For emergency shut down you have to hold the button for 10 secs.
 
Seems like a nice kit. Let me know how it works, and how much. I might go with it if it's worth the money and saves me some time.

The guy I talked to last night gave all my info to his boss & I'm waiting on her to get back at me with a price. I would have to buy in bulk but I think they are going to let me get a unit at a discounted price to test out. I have to wait on her to email me back to know for sure. I'm thinking about ordering about 10-20 units if they are not too expensive & selling the rest on ebay or CL.
