I'm no expert, but I would think that a remote start would work in a manual as long as you left the car out of gear when you park it. Just make sure to set that parking brake!

I just had a remote start installed and the installer said it's illegal to install a remote start on a manual transmission and no reputable installer would do this.

You could also get the OEM Ford Remote Starter. I was checking into it for myself.
Ya, I was thinking about that too.

Since its Ford, I wonder if they use the same remote or if you need ANOTHER remote? Got too many remotes as it is!

BTW: mdlesk, did you get your pony fixed? Light pole if I remember correctly? I cringed when I read that, slow speed accidents FEEL worse 'cuz you see it coming!

SOHC
SOHC, I got the windshield replaced 2 days after it happened. I am going to order the RKSport California Dream Body Kit in the next week or so and have it installed since 3/4 of the rest of the car has to be repainted anyways. I was able to pound the dent out of the existing front bumper, but it's still cracked all the way across. Yeah I saw it slowly coming down at me and I slowly went into it. I'm just glad it didn't come through the windshield and injury me.

Here let me clean this up im certified to to do remote starts, u can do in a manuel but the problem is if u forget it in gear ur car will jump about 2-3 feet, it is illegel for a shop to do it but there are installers that do it, just dont go back to them if u do remote start in gear, its also possibile to have 1 remote tha not oem, DEI makes it, it very simple (well for me it is), not gonna get into the whole wireing cuz i'll be here all day and im at work so i dont feel like doing that lol, if i do it in a manuel i charge more but i make it so if the car is in gear it wont start, most installers this day dont bother with it, also u dont have to give up a key u better of paying for the 1000f which requiers only programing, ok there my 2 cents any question anything audio alarms reley really anything mobile electronics ill gladly help u answer.
