Yet there’s one critical element that must be incorporated to complete the trifecta – the 5 SPURS Power Button. The Mustang’s start button is that crucial connection between you and the car, it’s the gateway to the power of the engine and roar of the exhaust.

We put thought and focus on the start button because its function is integral and its use is frequent. Think about how many times you will be starting your car.

The button is a sign of commitment and a mark of quality. All our buttons come secured in a custom handmade box to symbolise it’s significance. With each touch of the 5 SPURS Power Button you’re going to love your car all over again.

Simplicity in design

Quote on Simplicity
Simple & Sophisticated

A thought provoking excerpt from a legend whose designs and products have revolutionized industries and changed lives. His words resonate strongly with us at 5 SPURS as we look back on the hard work that has gone into re-designing the Start button.

On the surface our start button might look like the stock OEM one in metal, but to the trained eye and mind, they are miles apart. We have re-engineered something small to produce a huge impact, the experience of starting up a car has been completely transformed and re-defined. That is the beauty of the 5 SPURS Power button. We had to remove the clutter, delve deep into the depths of complexity and focus on the essence of the Mustang – the POWER!

While the Power text is there to reinforce what happens when you press the button, the power symbol adds a recognized graphic that is minimalist, looks good, is true to function and yet BOLD!

Clear, simple, efficient.

We hope our customers and the automotive industry appreciate the hard work and thought that has gone into crafting this jewel.

Make a Power statement with the 5 SPURS button available in the VAULT!


Ever figure out what those symbols mean?

The 2 symbols with Engine Start/Stop text look way too cluttered on something as small as the Start Button and have little relevance outside the confines of engineering board rooms.

Bin that cheap plastic, leave the stickers to the kids and indulge yourself with the experience of a high grade Aluminum Power button that will boost your pride of ownership. Pick one up at our VAULT and make sure to recycle that plastic.


Hidden feature: Accessory Mode

Most modern cars have start buttons with “ENGINE Start/Stop” displayed on them. While this is correct for starting the engine, there are times when you want to turn on only the car’s accessories like radio, air conditioning, navigation etc. without starting the engine. This is where the confusion lies. The same start button has a secondary function called “Accessory Mode” and it is to be activated when you do not need the engine started or running. In the S550 Mustang, this mode can be turned on by pushing the start button without pressing the brake pedal for auto transmissions or brake + clutch pedal for manual transmissions.

To make this clear, this is how it reads:

To start/stop engine: ENGINE START/STOP
To turn on/off Accessory Mode: ENGINE START/STOP**

**Incorrect instruction since the engine does not start when this mode is activated.
