Angry Laptop Power On I've Searched Help Please

Ok guys well I lost my job so I am in need of money. So I pulled my itx system from my glove box and I am installing my laptop into the car. My plan was to install a small numeric keypad in my console so I could just hit a key to bring the computer back from hibernate or standbye. So I've pulled everything and just go finished setting the laptop up and I've found that the only way to bring it back from hibernate is to hit the power button and the only way to bring it back from standbye is to hit a key on the laptops keyboard. This isn't going to be possible since I am installing the laptop under the passenger seat. So basically I am losing my mind. I've seen people speak of taking the laptop apart and hard wireing a monetary switch. This isn't possible for me because I need to be able to remove this laptop and bring it places with me. Ok well someone please help. Here are the specs of the laptop.
Sony Vaio TR2A
1GHZ Centrino
512 ram
xp home
40 gig hd.
2 usb, modem, ethernet, firewire, pcmcia, sound, and monitor ports are all that I have available.
O wait I have a dc out port available that I have never been able to figure out what that does. Ok well please help someone. Thanks,
Tim Stark
