Getting to the button is actually pretty easy. If you pop the center vents out, you can reach the back of the button and release the 2 retaining clips.

I think there is a DIY someone did where they changed what it said on their start button.

I just had an idea after seeing this. I'm sure there is a thread on it, but since I literally just had this thought and started to type as soon as I though it... I think it would be cool to have a red pst button like the guys over on the 370z forums changing there pst buttons to the gtr pst button. Just a thought. I'm not even sure if there is any other options out there for us to change out our pst buttons.

I will now proceed to waste a few hours at work searching for pst button options.
