I was in the original group buy last year. It took about 3 months once the order was placed. Gotta say, I'm still loving the look. The install took 30min. Here's a link to my pics.

So its made to order with a 3 month period wait?
Also anyone that have bought the push button have a picture of the whole unit, instead of the top view.

Nothing much to see really...It doesn't replace the push button starter unit...but just the cap that says "engine start"

I don't know if this would help but It has picture of the "prototype" and finished products

I see, so for just a replacement cap its $150 kind of expensive don't you think, i can understand if its the starter unit.

Seeing how the entire starter unit goes for $150~250 ish i guess it is on the expensive side (Just like how JDM window visors cost like $500 lol). I just treated it as "i won't go out for one night" type of purchase...no big deal

Unfortunately for others, the group buy was at a lower price. We paid about $30 less. Still that was expensive. My understanding is these are being made in Asia. That's one reason for the longer wait times.
