Push Button Start, how hard? possible on a 2k2

i found a push button starter and i think it would be cool to hae but i'm concerned about a few things.
1. how does it hook up.
2. do you still need the key in the ignition, pretty much 100% positive on my car since i have a chip but on other cars(my friend want one too)
3. is it hard to install????]
4. do you have one???

I have a 4th Gen and I installed a remote car starter. I am VERY sure that it is almost the same process as it is installing a pushbutton start. You need to find the 2 starter and ignition wires that come from the ignition that control the starting sequence. I know it seems hard, but when I find my manual for installing the remote car starter, I will tell you the color of the wires that are used to start the car.

My write-up on a push button starter:

A) Take your Minima to a Honda dealer.

B) Ask about its trade-in value.

C) Calm the salesman down from the out of control laughing.

D) Settle on a ridiculously low value for your Minima.

E) Purchase a Stook in the color of your choice (Yellow is preferred by former Minima drivers)

F) Sign a loan for many years with hefty payments.

G) Now you have a car with a start button that actually handles well and goes fast in stock form.

H) Smile with your new purchase and impress the ladies.

New 7-series has it too. Nissan really misses the boat as far as "cool" features goes, I mean look at the ignition switch on a Maxima, it still goes into the steering column. That's like 1975 style!
