Default Small custom project Aventador start button.

I know it's a little silly but I love the start button in the lambo Aventador. I thought it would be really cool to add something like that to my Stingray. My mechanical level is pathetic so I wanted to find out from guys that know how difficult this would be? Thanks.

I don't think the START button relocation will be that difficult if you can source one.
Linking the STRADA/SPORT/CORSA to the drive mode selector might be a little tricky.

thegame, I too, have asked a few of our Vendors if they can make a red cover for the start button of my C7.

No one wanted to take on this project. All I wanted was the red toggle cover for my Start button. Heck, I don't even care about relocating it......

Sick car!!! No I don't need all that. I don't even need to change the start button. I just want the red button cover. Think it looks badass.

NASCAR Cup cars have something similar mounted in the dash. No idea where they get them.

Right but I'm a moron when it comes to any do it yourself projects. How would they fit and attach. It wouldn't have to be the exact Aventador switch just a similar idea that looks cool.

That's a great idea. Probably the coolest feature of that lambo.

Although I'd be happy having it placed over the existing button location. This would prevent an Onstar call due to a venti mocha accident

If you figure this out I'd be interested in what you come up with. Will look around as well.
