Start-Stop Button swap out

Minicobra1 · 03-02-2010, 11:54 PM

Anyone know if it's possible to swap out the start/stop button for a GTR style, like this one? I emailed a company that makes aftermarket systems, to see if I could just get the button, waiting for a response.
I wonder if the factory GTR button will fit the 370z.

DIGItonium has been dissecting the interior's lighting, and you might want to contact him: Start Button Dissection

Thanks for the link socal

Thanks for the reference!

I like our Start button design because the plastic is white, so the LEDs can be changed to whatever color. It looks very nice at night.

looks like a race car start button.

Haha. Dumb camera phone picture.

Mine!

It'd be easier to just swap out the LED for a red one instead of getting the GT-R ones to work.

Yeah, red LED would be cool, but it still would have the clear plastic look during the day, I like the solid opaque red button, or maybe a solid green with white lettering.
Or maybe I'll just make a billet aluminum one with the "Z" logo carved in it.
The green looks nice at night

that looks super kool!!!!! i wonder if it can fit....

Button looks to be exact same. Just use the Z bezel instead of the GTR one, that's all.
Recycling engineering FTW!!

Is there a part # and an idea of cost?
I'm very much interested..

Vegitto-kun · 04-24-2010, 05:37 PM

Mmmm maybe I should steal my dad's start button now

I wonder where you would be able to get the GT-R button? Dealership?

nogoodname · 04-24-2010, 05:41 PM

Price is not listed where I checked. Call some junkyards to see if they have any. I'm sure there's some crashed GTR's around.
