5speed manual here, not a great idea for a remote starter.

and just put a 3amp fuse in line on the wire.

and i dont remember where i grounded it, but theres so many options.

Ford sells it as a FRPP part.
I dont think a FRPP part like that could void warranty.

When you say you got it for $32 at the dealer is that the Honda dealer?

Thanks

It's a cool gadget but pointless I think for a manual. You still have to turn the key to ON and have your foot on the clutch. So you're still turning the key everytime you want the car on and off.

yes this will void your warranty all car manufacturers sell these things because they want you to buy them from them and pay their service techs $65 an hour to install them. if you want it that bad then get it it wont void the entire warranty only the warranty on things like the starter and ignition system

I appreciate your response, but use some punctuation so i dont have to decipher every sentence. Anyways, Im wiring it up in a way where its not going to hurt my ignition at all. Im using 3M T-taps. I can connect and disconnect these things and they dont hurt anything at all. The only important wire i have to tap is the Ignition wire, the other wire to tap is the power wire to the cig lighter. No biggie.
