Default Start button using sunroof switch?

Is it possible to use a sunroof switch as a start button? I don't have a sunroof so it would solely be in place for the reason of being a momentary button for my starter. Would this work instead of some little toggle switch hidden somewhere? I like the idea of it looking OEM and easily accessible yet not screaming "PUSH ME" to start the car.


I have the relay and everything except a switch and I've been trying to think of places to put some switches and I would love for this to work but I don't have a sunroof switch on hand so I can't really experiment without it. And I'd hate to spend a few bucks just to have it not work.

Thanks

Yes you can, it can be used as the starter, [crank motor to start], you will need a relay.

It could also be used as a momentary switch for a starter disable, [kill switch] 1 or 2 relays will be needed, [1 if just a N/O starter kill, and 2 if a passive N/O, one touch, "latching" starter kill] 94
