yes there is a way but it is highly illegal for a reason, heres why, a few years ago i installed a remote starter in a friends manaual transmission S-10 truck, at one point he needed to jump start his truck but did not disable the system, he did not have keys in, upon completing jumper cable connections, the truck started while in gear, it lunged forward taking out a pay phone, word to the wiser, dont do it

There are a lot of units out there that has manual transmission remote start capability. These systems are designed for manual transmission, automatic, turbo, or diesel engines. Some systems are better than others. Some have better safety features that even senses the car if in gear or not while others only have the emergency break sensor.

is it really highly illegal? I have a 2003 mustang gt and 2003 ford focus SE plus my girlfriends 2000 mitsubishi mirage DE all 3 are 5spd and all 3 have Remote starts. How do they catch you and what is the fine/ticket I am looking at?

i just installed a commando 5005 system with remote start on my 5sp, but i took precautions to make it safe....i used a home security window magnet (normally open) and placed the magnet on my shift cable and the sensor was mounted nearby so that the switch is open only when the car is in neutral, the sensor is wired to my clutch pedal switch so that my clutch is 'down' when the car is neutral
