There certainly is away to do it. However I have not seen it done. I opened a post up in our forums, maybe someone in the Pelican community can offer some insight.

It can be done, but the question becomes "Why?" You can wire a push button into the starter harness to function in place of the key, but the key still must be inserted in the ignition switch to satisfy the immobilizer and alarm systems so the button would work. If you think about it, you have to ask if the view is really worth the climb, and I would consider such a set up as a "deduct from asking price item" during a PPI.................
