wireing a remote start on manual

Im wondering if anyone else has wired the remote start on a manual DX, ive looked and there are posts on the autos, and not on DX, so if anyone knows either where there is a post on it or someone who may be able to help me that would be awsome thanks

Dont put a remote start on a manual, thats a serious safety hazard. If you remote start it in gear, there goes your car, down the road. That is why they are generally only on autos. I have seen a few on manuals, but being a prior installer, I have a strict no manual policy. Too much liability involved.

edit: PM me for further instructions.

in the two years ive had my remote start installed, I have NEVER had a runaway car. In the rare case that I DO need to leave my car in gear, i have a switch inline of my neutral safety that will not let remote start engage.

I totally agree with ^^^^ doing this is a BAD idea. I've seen an accident once with this and it wasnt pretty. The car was at a tire shop for tires. The tech pulled the car out front of the store and it was sorta pointed at the store. Customer was inside walking out. Hit the remote start the car took off thru the front of the building. Anyone doing this is just asking for a HUGE law suit. It's not a matter of IF it will happen but more WHEN it will happen!

Not to be a D*ck but i wouldnt recommend posting how to unsafely set a car up. It COULD be as bad as giving the gun to someone who shoots someone I would keep this info to PM's at a min.

i'm doing this to my 5spd in about a week. I'm the only one that drives my car. I always leave it in neutral w/parking brake. The only way somthing can go wrong is if someone else is using your car. If by chance someone else has your car like a shop it would be a good idea to inform them of the remote start so they don't do somthing stupid.

O Yeah how bout a bump for some help on how to do this!!!!! Not why not to!!!!!!!!!!!

I did this on my car. hook it up to the e brake and do a clutch bypass and never leave ur car in gear. If someone else parks your car or drives it. Do not start it because u dont know if they left it in gear. I have had mine installed for over a year and also have the switch to deactivate it installed.

You can easily bypass the clutch by crossing two wires... There is a sensor on the clutch pedal that when pushed in tells the car to start. Mine has been bypassed forever.
