I have a service tech unofficially looking into installing the same type of switch in the Civic. It is good to find another example of a similar install. If it works for my car, I think it will make the daily commute a little easier. I am hoping that all the electronics, including the ScanGaugeII, remain active after engine shutoff and that there isn't a period of time with the steering locked or without power. As it stands, I switch the key off, wait for the engine to completely stop, and switch it back to on. There is a period of no power assist in the steering and probably a shorter period steering lock.
