Hi. Has anyone ever fitted one of these push button starter kits please: pivotracing.com/product/ES. I've brought one for my R53 2004 and could really do with some help as to how to fit it.

Hi,

Much the same as this......

Engine Start kit for Mini R50 R52 R53 R55 R56 R57 Cooper S Works One D 1.6 | eBay (http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Engine-Start-kit-for-Mini-R50-R52-R53-R55-R56-R57-Cooper-S-Works-One-D-1-6-/110872770357?pt=UK_CarsParts_Vehicles_CarParts_SM&hash=item19d0883735#ht_4454wt_1058)

Don't see this being hard to fit at all , i take it you will need to locate your ignition wires and some sort of power source , maybe from the cigarette lighter as this would have enough amps required , your kit also must come with a relay for it to work.

I had a look at these but i thought since you still have to insert the key anyway i decided against it.

If you are confident in wiring then this will be a simple task.

Thanks Harvey. My wife loves it when I tell her that i am going to do something 'simple' to the car and am still tinkering 4 hours later. LOL. Thanks for the advice.

Lol , I am exactly the same! Just be an hour darling! Lol

If you get stuck just pop back on and ask.

Good luck and let us know how you get on :)
