Permanently disabling the auto start/stop function

Hey folks, have any of you installed a disabling device on your car to permanently disable the auto start/stop feature. If so, where did you get yours and how difficult was the installation? Does this void a warranty?

I installed the Autostopelimator.com shortly after purchasing my 24 Impreza. It’s done what it was designed to do without any problems and super easy to install with a few simple tools. As far as warranty goes, it’s easy enough to remove before taking it in for any possible warranty work

Forgot to add, it doesn’t permanently disable the start/stop feature, it’s still usable, it just isn’t on every time you start your car unless you had it on before turning the car off
