I have seen a kit for it at fastwrx.com I believe. It was labled as 02-03, but I dont know if there is any difference in it. I looked for one for awhile. My friends 99 Camaro SS has one, its pretty cool.

just get any old pushbutton, like the ones off the shelf at auto-zone or what have you.

doesnt have to be year or model specific, just a pushbutton that looks appealing to your aesthetics.

connect one side to a 12v source (on with the key or hot all the time) and connect the other side to the small wire on the back of the starter. you wont need any high amp haevy gauge swith either since its a low amperage signal to the solenoid on the starter, not the current draw from the starter itself.

simple as that, but obviously, the key needs to be on for the car to start. if you connect ot to a hot all the time power source, you can crank the motor over with the key off( will not start but handy for servicing purposes)

i h ave a pushbutton in my car simply becaus the neutral safety circuit doesn't exist anymore, because i swapped in a manual 4wd in place of a automatic FWD
