Got this in yesterday. Fit my original ion but held the power button down constantly. Had to clip off some of the plastic and file down a couple parts to get it to function correctly. All together it probably took me 15 minutes. 10 times better than the stock button once you get it to work correctly.

I absolutely HATE stock ion power buttons. One of these happened to come with an ion xe i received in a gearbag sale, after that i immediately ordered one for my GFs ion xe. Turning it on/off is sooooo easy now, you can "Feel" when your depressing the button!
WHEN INSTALLING; note that you MUST completely clean off the original power buttons glue. Make sure your board is properly installed. When its time to put the button in, loosen up the upper right grip screw, since these usually tend to push the board towards the power button. Once the button is in place, make sue the right upper grip screw is properly tightened and is the right screw size since the button depends on it to push the board up.

While i was trying to install it (properly) the locking tab snapped off, waste of 5 bucks, don't even bother with it

Some ppl say it works perfectly and some say it doesnt even come close to fitting. In my case it was an all around fail, it would get stuck and the power button would be pressed down the entire time. Im starting to think that it depends what year model Ion you own, my Ion is easily 4 yrs old. Its a cheap purchase so its worth getting to try... if it works great if not oh well.
