That location was going to be my suggestion.  I think you did a great looking job.

Once the car is running, I assume it locks out the starter so some asshat doesnt reach over and push it, right??

Yes,Once it's started,the process is over,and you still need the keys,or no starty.

That looks so clean, i like it a lot. i also wanted to install buttons for everything in my car when my 460 gets swapped in. I think it would be cool to get in your car and turn on everything like your fuel pump, and evrything........Itll sound like a jet when you fire it up!!!!

To be truthful,I did think about installing buttons in a pen 15pit fashion like a jet,but decided to keep everything somewhat stock looking,or at least only mildly changed.Nothing too wild or extreme.I'm just a simple guy.

You will have to put detailed pics of the install. I'd love to see how this is achieved.

that looks good. came out with the same finish as OEM.  the MX5 came with the push button start in place of the cig lighter.  the cig lighter is to the right of the steering wheel so it actually looks like thats where it should go.  its just a bitch that i have to turn the car on with the keys, then hit the button for ignition.

I like the key idea.No accidents from inquiring minds with itchy fingers.

This makes it a little harder to steal. Makes sense if you ask me.
