It’s only in any trim prior to 2022 that has a regular ignition. Ie no push to start. So you can stick a screwdriver in and turn the ignition I guess.

No you do have to take the basic plastics and ignition/keyed part off. The USB is the right shape to get the ignition to turn after the rest is out of the way. Donut media did it in a video to demonstrate whats going on
