I just picked up a couple of these relays today... My next step is figuring out how to wire them... And not sure if I'll use an s2000 button or new Altima engine start button.

I did this long ago on my trans am but the difference was we used all 4 pins on the relay. Here we Use 87, 86 and 30 but what so we connect the 85 pin to?
Edit: I think the 85 Goes to the start button
now the easy way to connect the button was to use the wire harness from a 3.5 in floppy drive, however I am unsure what pins within the start button correspond to what function (ie ground etc)

Thinking about doing this mod, although I'm going to add a hidden interruption switch for the button. I've found the button on ebay, and the relay from the link provided, but not sure how to wire it. I'm sure I could figure it out, but if someone knows and can save me the trouble, that would be awesome. I'm going to order these soon, and if I figure it out, I'll post up my results.
Once again, sorry to resurrect an old post, but I wanted to point something out. I read through about 5 pages and didn't see anything about this. The relay will need a momentary 12V across pins 85 and 86, so the button will need one pin connected to +12V supply, and the other connected to pin 86/85 (whichever is not the ground). Meaning that the battery should be disconnected in case of a short. Again, I don't know if this was discussed, but I felt that was an important piece of info to people who do not know much about relays. I haven't posted much here, and will try to post a pic later of what I mean.
This is a very rough diagram of where each pin of the relay should go. For the pin numbering on the harness, and the pin locations refer to the first post. Again, if this info was already posted, please let me know, I just wanted to summarize it more.
