I would like to know how to wire the remote start feature on my new 1998 BMW M3 with a manual tranny.  I have a new Alarm that I bought and it includes remote start in the package with KKE and Alarm.

Any and all help would be appriciated as I am new to security installs.

The Alarm System I bought was a Prestige Platinum Model APS 995C by Audiovox.

Email offline as well please

What?
No brave installers willing to help a newbie install a remote starter on a manual trans 98 Beamer equiped with the EWS II immobilizer and a factory security system with deadbolt doorlocks?

I should qualify that I did go to school for Electronics as well.  So I am more of a newbie installing my own alarm, not so with general car stuff and/or electroincs.

The Car also does NOT has a factory alarm system, but I do know it has the pre-wire connector.

Not all at once now....

Thanks,

Aaron

OK, We all had some fun - time to get busy asudds!
Start with this, it's for a BMW 3 Series 1998 but it should be very similar:
12 VOLTS RED / wht or red + ignition harness    
STARTER 1 blk/yel or grn/blk + ignition harness    
IGNITION 1 green + ignition harness    
IGNITION 2 pur/wht or purple + ignition harness    
POWER LOCK WHITE/ red + factory alarm plug     
The alarm plug is a black 12 pin plug located just behind the glove box. It is mounted with the pins facing you atop a vent just to the left of the body computer.
Other wires at the alarm plug are:
12V- RED / white;
Accessory- PURPLE / white;
Siren- BLACK/ blue;
Ground- BROWN / orange.
Do not use the power sources at the alarm plug to operate high-current devices. The other side of the siren wire is mounted in a 2 pin plug at the passenger rear corner of the engine compartment. The other wire in the plug is a brown ground wire.
POWER UNLOCK blue/red + factory alarm plug     
PARKLIGHTS POSITIVE gry/pur, gry/yel + headlight switch    
These wires are the separate left and right parking light wires. Use both wires and isolate each.
PARKLIGHTS NEGATIVE blue/green (hazards) - factory alarm plug     
HEADLIGHT yellow   headlight switch
   
BRAKE blue/red + at brake pedal switch    
DOOR PIN    - factory alarm plug     
Door triggers are BROWN / gray for the drivers front door, BROWN / blue for the passenger front door, and BROWN / white for the rear doors (if equipped). Use all three wires and diode isolate each.
HOOD PIN PURPLE / green -      
Located in a single pin connector next to the factory alarm plug.
TRUNK PIN BROWN / white - factory alarm plug     
DOMELIGHT SUPERVISION comes on with unlock       
TACH black   instrument cluster     
The wire is located in a white connector behind the instrument cluster. Do not unplug the white connector with the ignition on or turn the ignition on with the plug disconnected.
HORN BROWN / red - steering column    
WIPER blk/gry and blk/blu - steering column    
This vehicle is equiped with the EWS II immobilizer system that need to be bypassed when adding a remote start. Use DEI module 555B or something similar.    
If you run into a wall with your install let us know!
