The person who had my car before me installed a push button ignition. They were trying to make the civic into a tuner, but did not get very far. I have one toggle switch for the entire electrical system and then a momentary push button for the starter.

The system works well for EOC. I get up to speed and flip the toggle switch to kill the electrical. I then turn the electrical back on to power the odometer. When it is time to start the engine, I just push the starter button.

I have no idea how the person wired it, but it seems to work well and I have seen no ill effect in the 4 months I have had the car.
