What Is a Push to Start Kit?
A push to start kit, also known as a push-button start kit or push to start conversion kit, is an aftermarket automotive accessory that allows you to start your vehicle with the push of a button rather than using a traditional key. This technology has become increasingly popular in modern vehicles, offering convenience and a touch of sophistication.
The typical components of a push to start kit include a push-button ignition switch, a control module, a keyless entry system, and wiring harnesses. Installation involves connecting these components to your vehicle's existing electrical system.
Push to start kits are often sought after for their ease of use and the added security they can provide. With this system, you can start your car by simply having the key fob within proximity of the vehicle and pressing the designated button. It eliminates the need for inserting a key into the ignition cylinder.
Can You Add Push-Button Start to Any Car?
In most cases, it is possible to add a push-button start system to almost any car, regardless of its make or model. However, the ease of installation and the compatibility of the system may vary.
Here are some factors to consider when adding push-button start to your car:
1. **Compatibility:** Ensure that the push to start kit you choose is compatible with your specific vehicle. Some kits are designed to work with certain makes and models.
2. **Installation:** The complexity of the installation may vary. Some DIY enthusiasts may choose to install the kit themselves, while others prefer professional installation.
3. **Keyless Entry:** Many push-button start kits also include keyless entry features, allowing you to unlock and lock your car without a physical key.
It's advisable to consult the manufacturer's instructions and, if needed, seek the assistance of a professional installer to ensure proper installation and compatibility with your vehicle.
How Much Does It Cost to Convert a Car to a Push-Button Start?
The cost of converting a car to a push-button start varies depending on several factors, including the brand and features of the kit, whether you choose professional installation, and any additional accessories you may want. Here's a general price range to consider:
1. **Basic Kits:** Basic push to start kits without keyless entry features may start at around $50 to $150.
2. **Mid-Range Kits:** Kits with keyless entry and added security features typically range from $150 to $300.
3. **High-End Kits:** Advanced kits with keyless entry, remote start, and additional functionalities can cost $300 or more.
4. **Installation:** If you opt for professional installation, expect to pay additional labor costs, which can range from $100 to $300 or more, depending on the complexity of the installation.
Keep in mind that the final cost can vary based on your vehicle's make and model, as well as the specific kit you choose. It's essential to select a reliable kit and consider professional installation for a seamless and secure conversion.
