For years, I have added a push button to an empty switch spot on the dash and wired my opener to it. I then clip, or hang, the opener up under the dash to keep it out of sight. I opened the openers and spliced into the button contacts with a bit of wire and an plug. The switch on the dash has a mating plug. In Ohio, we have to have the registration and proof of insurance for the authorities if you are stopped, so they are usually in the glovebox with the owner's manual. This way, if a creep breaks into the car, he likely won't steal the opener (and your registration with the address on it), go to your house, and break in through the garage. It also saves the hassle with replacing the opener and re-programming everything with a new code. Hopefully, I'll be able to find a spot on the Cruze dash to easily mount a push button.

I just wire in a Flash2Pass system... works great, and no new buttons required. Best part, took it off the old car I traded it and put it into the Cruze in about 20 mins. total and I'm back in action.

Pretty slick! I like the way it ties into the vehicle. Today was a success, I learned something new!

Yeah, quick and easy and good for any vehicle. I did this originally because I have a convertible and didn't want an opener visible if I left the top down. Now I have one for every car... LOVE IT.
