I want to add a hidden remote starter button. Can I tap into the yellow wire under the passenger seat (used to have the interlock - but all that is bypassed)?

Switch tied to yellow wire and a switched hot?

It will still require a key to switch to "ON" position - but I know the keyswitch will fail on me in the middle of the Mojave or someplace similar.

Thanks in advance!

I have a relay on my starter with 2 GROUND buttons that complete the relay circuit( and thereby engage the starter). One buttons on the dash and the others in the engine compartment.
Key =on the ignition and the button the starter!

Thanks Kansas! had it now for a # of years and no probs. Have a roll cage and it was increasingly difficult to crank up the car and get out of it to make adjustments before it would die! Had to drive it or warm up for 20 minutes. No chokes on the Delortos!
