Anyone installed a Push-to-Start button?

Vic Roma
I like the mod-con of no key to start our other vehicles, and wondered if anyone has installed a start button to replace the traditional key?

Like these.

I haven't seen "mod-con" since I left the UK.  I well remember the adverts saying "and all mod-cons".  So has that come into the US lexicon and I missed it?  Or are you a Brit?

What, push button start or mod-cons?  I thought I had lots of mod-cons.

I had one for a bit when I was rewiring everything, but unless you want your steering wheel unlocked all the time you'll still have to put the key in and turn which defeats the purpose in my opinion.
