    if you do, please remember to put safety overrides into the system. Mate had the keyfob start on his VW van, didn't fit the switch to stop it from starting if it was left in gear. Did exactly that, started in gear & being a diesel had the torque to actually start the engine. He jumped in front to try & stop it, ended up with a titanium bar in his leg after being crushed between the van & a house
