There's four ways which you could do it
Firstly, you could just use your existing key to remove the steering lock and for the immoiblser
Or you could remove the steering lock altogether and use a bypass
there's 3 types of bypasses.
Type 1 - "Universal" Bypass. This involves a box into which one of the vehicle's keys is placed and mounted under the dash. When the remote start is active, the signal from this key travels through a ring around the key cylinder into the factory antenna.
Type 2 - Vehicle-specific RF Bypass. This works basically the same as the universal bypass, except that it includes a chip designed to program to the car like a key would (thereby not sacrificing one of the car's keys).
Type 3 - Vehicle-specific Data Bypass. These types have become available in the past 5 years and involve connecting to wires on the car. They send a data signal directly to the car's computers to enable starting.
Then you can wire the button into the ignition system

Already done it and already ripped it out. Pointless on a petrol as it takes too long to go through the process.
Although on a Diesel it's alot better as you've got to turn the ignition on and wait for the glow plugs to heat up and by that time you'll have got to the push start.

give me to mins there's a how to on the fiesta forum (yes ano) but it may be the same prinsible.
Ford Power Start Button
The following is a guide for fitting a Ford Power Start Button; shown on a Fiesta ST150. This is shown in place of the boot release button, however it can be located in other positions.
What you will need...
1 x Start Button
4 x 0.5m Lengths of Wire (2 x red and 2 x black)
4 x Cable Connectors (Like this)
Tools required...
Cross-head Screwdriver
Torx Screwdriver
Small Electrical Screwdriver (or similar)
Soldering Iron, Solder and Heat Shrink
Sanding Tool or File
Guide...
Next you will need to remove the ignition loom as below.
This is where the new connections will need to be made.
First you will need to cut off the plastic surrounding the pins on the underside of the switch. I have highlighted just above the clips.
Next, solder the red wire to the prongs numbered 4 & 6 and the black wire to the prongs numbered 1 & 3.
This leaves you with four lengths of cable. Wrap up the cable with insulation tape or heat shrink in preparation for routing it through the dash later. Please note, pins are numbered although this is not visible in the pictures.
Place the starter button into the surround and into the hole in the dash. Then route the cable through behind the dash, taking care not to snag the wire on any sharp edges. I find it suitable to cable-tie the lead to points on the dash as to keep it sturdy and in a fixed place.
You will be connecting the leads to the ignition part of the loom (shown above). Using cable connectors, connect your black leads from the starter switch to the grey/black wire on the ignition loom. Connect your remaining red leads to the yellow/green ignition lead. You will notice that the starter and ignition leads are the furthest apart leads on the ignition plug.
Finally, replace the dash fittings, leaving the boot release button connected in the small compartment.
