So, not sure if anyone has done it or knows how to. But, wiring a push start with out using the key? This is what I have. Yes, there is indeed no dash or gauge cluster. Lol.

Push to crank is easy. That is just applying power to the starter solenoid. The main problem is energizing the ACC, HOT in RUN and START, and rear defroster circuits and turning them off when you shutdown the engine.
My race car is set up with a switch and relays to control power to those circuits and guarded a "push to crank" switch. To prevent pranks in the paddock, the ignition key has to be used to enable the relays.The car makes it possible, but the driver makes it happen.
