Anyone have a picture in a 2015 Nismo?

Mostly curious if the button matches the shade of the red circle trim on the Nismo.

Heh, already did it. Guides were implying the plugs were at 2 but actually at 11 and 4. Not sure it will let me post pics since I'm new, but next post...

How much pressure does it take? I get the screw driver behind the start button. But can't get it to pop. Anymore pressure I feel will mark the center console.

Shouldn't take much pressure. I also don't recommend metal to pry at it. I use a plastic panel removal tool. Invaluable at <$10 for the set

See my previous post in this thread for where to pry

GTR start button! another alternative..

Good call You can use a flathead screwdriver, but just be sure to wrap it with something to protect the dash. A small one with a terry cloth wrapped over it 2-3 times should work ok in a pinch.
