thanks!

 

i got it, its good.

 

thanks brownbanana!

 

how do you get the starter with manual tranny

 

bypass the clutch

 

How is it possible to bypass the Clutch, would the car be able to start at any time without the clutch pressed, or would he clutch only be bypassed when the remote starter is used

pretty much makes it think the clutch is in, not what you are thinking where it would think its always out

 

yea, once you get the clutch bypassed, you dont ever need to press the clutch to start, even with your key

 

hmm I think you're right, havn't tried it yet, habit I guess

 

when i got my alarm installed, the guy showed me starting the car with the key without pressing clutch..ive done it a couple times, but habit has me still pressing in the clutch

 

anyone have an estimate on how much getting a remote starter for a manual tc would cost?

 

for the model i got, local shops are sellin it for $550+ or so for the unit including installation...ebay has um for like $250, if you could do the install yourself or have a hookup.

 

you could get the autopage 855 for $180 on ebay and do it yourself following a how to that is sure to pop up. the Autopage is great

 

any how to's for the compustar one?

 

the guy who did my alarm (my boys cousin) said its harder than normal alarms and it dont come with install instructions, even for them so he had to fiddle it around the first time he installed that model at his shop.
