I have a few questions along these same lines...I have a 2007 mini convertible on order and want to have an aftermarket alarm installed when I get the car. Does the remote start feature of an alarm have to be connected in order for a security system to function properly? Several 2 way alarms I have liked have remote start built in yet I do not want it (manual transmission). Also, where would I find the Tach wire and VSS wire on the 2007 mini convertible? Any help would be much appreciated. Also, any recommendations for an installer in the Studio City-Burbank area and/or San Bernardino area? Thanks
