Keyless start question

[stratkid2004]

So...for Christmas I got a Bulldog RS82 remote starter kit. Like an idiot I instantly grabbed a knife and tore into the plastic to see what kind of wires and cool gadgets I'll get to be installing when the weather warms up...then I noticed on the front of the package that is says "for automatic transmission vehicles only". I looked on their website and couldn't find a model for a standard, nor any adapters or anything of that sort. Is there a way to install it in a standard that isn't too crazy complicated? To just bypass the clutch safety switch? And will doing this myself kill my warrenty? Thanks for the help!!!:headbang:

I think you need to approach it as an insurance liability for them (the remote start company). If a car is in 'P' it is almost 100% certain it cant slip into 'N' and roll down the street. If you disable the neutral safety switch or clutch interlock switch on ANY car with a standard transmission, they risk legal action if the customer uses their product incorrectly. See what I mean? If you hit the starter and the car is in gear, a manual will move where an automatic will not.

I'm sure you could put an AT starter on a car with a MT, the responsibility is on you to make sure the car is in 'N' and the parking brake is set before you hit the button.
