retrofit start button WARNING!!!

Hi guys I had my mcs in for a bit of work the other day and got given a 06 plate cooper fited with the retrofit start button.

dont get one they're crap!
1) you have to mess about with the ignition onto position 2 before pressing start which you will forget to do every time.

2) it also didnt last very long before ****ing the car up....
the car had 2000 miles on the clock i lifted the steering column up a little and a bit of smoke came from behind the rev counter and at the same time all thie ignition died and therefore nothing worked on the car hadnt blown a fuse as far as i could see so mini assistance had to come out to recover my courtesy car
