My Car Mods.. For Now...

Today I just added a start button to my car.. I bought the button for B$43(Thanks dad for understanding that my key always get stuck at the number 3 position at the lock cylinder) at autobahn, serusop.. The Saleslady was shocked coz i didnt wanted the technician there to setup it for me coz 1. it costs about $25 labour charge 2. i've did research on how to install these things on cars 3. she was shocked i was young to be installing this thing on my own(WTH?! Young?! im like almost 20*that is young but WTH*)..
Below is a pic of the Button installed *pic taken during maghrib*
 Actually At first I had problems installing this button because the instructions was in JAPANESE.. ahaha i didnt expect that... but luckily i understood the wires *red is for current, Black is for ground*.. so i connected the Those two wires to the same colored Wires behind My steering wheel*actually just the red the black wire i connected to the unpainted metal body of my car* and behind the lock cylinder*seen in the pic below*..when i connected the wires together.. ok when i connected the two red and black wires the button illuminates a blue light showing that it works but i cant start my car yet using the button because there are two more wires*both wires are blue* that MUST be connected to the ignition wires*which was confusing at first to find because i cant see the colors of the ignition! gray/orange and orange/yellow was the ignition wires behind the steering wheel*.. then i connected the blue wires to the ignition wires.. when all seems well.. i pressed the start button and WALA!! My car goes bruumm bruum...
 Wires Wires Wires!

 The down side of this modification is still i have to put my key on the keyslot and turn it to ON position(number two position) .. *this is a safety feature actually so that NO ONE WILL DRIVE MY CAR WITHOUT THE KEYS!..I'll be changing that to the number 1 position when i get a new switch and a new relay *maybe tomorrow*
 I'm also getting an another secondary switch so that i can power off the button *it always illuminates even if i pull away my key it worries me that the battery will go flat i know it's one of the feature of the button but i dont like it* im just thinking where can i put the switches coz most of my dashboard is FULL with knobs~

 Its Easy for me to do this mod coz i've done a lot of research..
Im also thankful to my YAYANG coz seconds after she prayed that this mod goes well.. My car started! thank you yayang.. I LOVE U <3 <3
