I have a customer who has a 2002 Audi TT 6 speed and she wants a 2 way, but the ones I get are not for manual transmissions.  I am not very familiar with which brands make manual transmiision 2 ways, so I thought I would see what you guys like.

AST Ultrastarter 4500M. Never used one but have used100's of their 1250's, 1500's, and1600's
The "M" version of their systems are for manuals.

there are many options u have for that customer     Compustar  has a manuel unit   it moniors door  and e-brake, Astrostart  has a unit  that  monitors the shirter position with IR sensors, this uit has along install time    depending on vehicle 3-4 hrs, also  all DEI products have a nuetral safty wire in them, check with Audi  i believe this car has a nuetral switch on the transmision i have  used all these pieces  with  goor sucess   the Astro is  time comsuming to get adusted  but  it is  safest of all as in mointors  the shifter position so if  car is running and u move shifter it will shut down

I did not think that Astrostar had a model for manual transmission.  What model # are you referring to.  I also am not familiar with a manual transmission having a factory neutral safety switch, just a clutch safety switch.  I have heard that Compustar sucks, but that is just from a few people on this site.  I think I will look into the untrastart model further since there is a dealer close that could sell me one, but I am not sure I liked the 2 way transmitter. I guess the body of it was OK, but that flip up cover is soooo cheap, I mean you sit on that thing funny when it is in your pocket and I bet it breaks.  Jeff has one on his website for almost $400 Canadian Collars which is pretty spendy, but still an option.   Thanks guys, any more you know of that are out there, or anymore information about this vehicle is appreciated.  I do have the wire diagram though.

Astrostart no longer makes a manual model.  They are supposed to be developing one.  There old unit worked really good although like you said, long install time.  It was deginately the safest though.  There are a lot of ways these other ones can be defeated.  If you leave a window open and someone reaches in and puts it in gear it will start in gear.  I never really cared for the exit procedure either.  Hopefully astrostart comes through for us once again.

If this customer can afford a 2002 TT I think she can afford a system that will cost her $ 800.00 that will protect it as well as start it Best 2 way for Manual Tranny -- posted image.. My 2c's

You are entirely right Jeff. So I am interested in hearing you brag about this system. I am pretty sure you could convinve me to buy one too if you can convince me that I will be getting what I pay for. What other bells adn whistles does it have? Do you have an electronic copy of the install manual?
Thanks
