Just did mine today. Really does add a bit of class.

Just added my GT-R Start button. Seriously took no more than a minute to swap:

;)

Yea just did this super easy.

Credit card will work great also

So where is the cheapest place to get one of these GT-R buttons nowadays?

Well, I couldn't wait any longer and just ordered one off of Amazon for $36 (plus $6 for shipping). Now it just needs to hurry up and get here!

Just finished installing my GT-R ignition switch and the 2015 nismo red ignition cover on my 2014 nismo! Looks awesome and such an easy job! I also installed interior led lights and clear lenses from the GT-R as well. Thanks to the DIY forum!

Here are the part numbers for my above post.

I like the red ignition cover. I'll probably install one as well. I just ordered my GT-R ignition switch yesterday.:tup:

It took about 2 weeks to get the red ignition cover since it is a fairly new part (for '15 and newer Nismo's), but worth the wait I believe!!!

I can wait 2 weeks. lol I had to wait almost 2 months to get my Swift lowering springs because the manufacturer was out of stock. They finally came in last Saturday, and I installed them and I love it. I can definitely tell a difference.

Just did this great swap!!!

Just did this swap a few days ago
Super easy mod took less than 5 min
I used a credit card

Add this to the list of one more mod bandwagon that I've jumped on. Install took less than 2 min (and part of that was me taping up the tip of the screwdriver so as not to scratch the leather).

That red is pretty.

Thank you so much from a newbie. You made this mod an easy deal for someone like me who was not familiar with our new 370z.
Thanks again,
James (Puke)

is it less bright than the factory one?

The entire button lights up on the original button so it is brighter, the new one still shows start and stop but is nit illuminated like the original button. Hope this helps.

I'm trying to install mine today. The stock
Button is hard to remove. I tried with a credit card but no luck. I can get in there but then how do you pull it out? I also tried with one of those plastic tools but I don't want to damage or scratch around it.

Help.

You need to squeeze the silver tabs after you disconnect the connector.

They are about 11:00 and 5:00 o'clock

:iagree:

Pay close attention to the tab location in the photos Post #322 in this thread. That's where you need to apply the pressure.

Awesome, I'll try that and report back. Thanks guys :tiphat:

Got it installed!

Does anybody have any suggestions on where to buy this? I used the link on the first page "Fontana Nissan/NissanRaceShop.com!!! $34.07 + shipping!"but on the website, the shipping to hawaii is $33! just as much as the item itself LOL.Price has gone up as well on the site from the $34.07.
Ive PM'd Scott@FONTANA to see if he can do a better shipping price but in case its a no go wanted to see if others have any suggestions on where to purchase. Thanks!

I got mine from Amazon. Right now it's $38.17 w/ free shipping:

Amazon.com: GTR Red Start Button 2009 - 2012 - 25151-JF00A: Automotive

Damn, that was so quick. Thank you swiss cheese!

No prob. You posted right as I was getting on.

thank you but they don't offer free shipping to HI, its $23.... ebays often the same with majority of sellers.

Hate living here in Oahu sometimes especially with automotive related things.

Anyone tried spray painting the chrome/silver ring to a matte black?

Edit: nvm found someone that did :)

Just FYI. Scott (race shop at Fontana USA) was able to give me a better shipping rate after I reached out to him directly. Thanks Scott!

Please do not take apart the dash... I did this in literally 1 minute and 34 seconds using only my drivers license while taking pics...

Thank you for that shortcut, I knocked it out in about a minute or so. Piece of cake!

How so? The above posts are from within the last several months

Short Video of the installation, is in Spanish but you will get the point. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vPPRUCTUPMM&t=69s

Muchos gracias mi amigo!:tup:

I finally got around to installing the GT-R start button. Super quick and easy. Thanks all for the great idea and the DIY steps. :tup:

Mine arrived today (UK) having ordered from Japan (On Amazon UK) because it was cheapest although it took a little longer to arrive.

Fitted in ten minutes using OP's original method

Looking great but looking forward to tonight to see the illuminated switch.

Many thanks to the OP for the original write up.:tiphat:
