Default Ignition Switch Upgrade & Push Button Installation – Tips Needed!

I've finally got some extra money and am thinking about doing a couple mods on my 1963 Chevrolet Corvette Sting Ray. I'm thinking about changing out my ignition switch and adding a Push Button. I'm wondering if anyone has done this mod? I saw some kits on eBay but they look way too cheap and I don't trust Chinese crap anyway. I also found a couple systems made here in the states, one is by Flaming River who I know and trust; https://www.flamingriver.com/rfid-ke...nition-systems and another by www.digitalguarddawg.com/auto . They totally look like the same systems to me just with different names on the boxes. a big price difference though. Has anyone done this mod and used any of these systems? I'm wondering how hard they are to install? The Guard Dawg company has a bunch of cool start buttons, https://www.digitalguarddawg.com/ike...tton-options-2 I can do basic wiring but don't want to get in over my head. Any thoughts or suggestions?

I've never done this but have been thinking about doing it for my dodge ram. Thanks for the links. I'm liking the GuardDawg IKEY with RFID.
