You have to loop the starter over the clutch and must make sure the car is in nutral at all times if using the auto starter<P>one time i started it in gear and the car started to roll away. i have a viper starter/alarm and you can shut it off the same way you turn it on so i just shut it off before it went down the street<P>Ps: no shop will install the startre for you unless you know somebody<P>good luck<BR>Jesse

im not completely sure how it is done, i think you install it as you would in an auto but you have to always make sure it is out of gear when starting<P>other than that im not the expert on this topic maybe one of the moderators know

Thanks Guys For all your help.<P>What i did is that i found out that behing the cluth pedal there is a white switch. So i got a tie clip and tied so that way the swith is press doen ad the computer think that i'm pressing the clutch. Now All i got to do is install the remote start like in a auto car.<P>I hope this help for all the crazy ones like me that are always trying to make theyre ride diff from everybody else. Just my 2 cents.<P> :)
