need desperate help with autostart asap,

Wow !! I HIGHLY suggest that you stop what your doing and give in and spend the $ 100 to get it installed by a professional. The car isn't that difficult to do, but for a newbie trying to install into a manual transmission vehicle, wow ! What a learning experience.

not goint to happen,  ill figure it out for myself if i cant get any help

If you are doing this with an automatic, the worse that can happen is a no start and blown fuses/computers. On a stick, I can only begin to imagine if you get it to start the wrong way.. If you value life, especially someone else's..stop what you are doing before you go head over heels and don't let pride/failure get in the way of clear thought. The questions you are asking will scare both pros and newbie alike. Nobody is trying to put you down..just trying to save something that you have control over currently..be it a life, a car..sanity etc etc.

Try to get the alarm installed first with the doorlocks and light/horn flashing leave the remote start alone..at least for now. The door inputs are door triggers which tell the autostart alarm brain the status of the doors, and trunk/hood's at any given time. You will connect this wire based on the polarity of the wire in your car. If done right things that will/can happen are:

* car alarm will go off if door is forced open
* car alarm with lock doors automatically if told to do so if it senses all doors are closed

Try to read up on basic alarm install first..arm yourself with this knowledge and ask and then attempt accordingly..

A little more info would be helpful. I am not sure what you have done so far. I assume you have the power accessory, ignition, starter, and parking light wires hooked up successfully. Door locks are high in the drivers kick near where they come in from the door. It has been a while since I grabbed those but they were literally the worst pain in the neck I ever experience installing. There is not much room in that car to do anything. After you have tested the wires to make sure you have found the right ones, you need to cut them and install relays between the ends. I don't know if AutoStart has onboard relays for door locks, so if they do then great and if not, look in the relays section (follow the relays link on the left column of this website until you get to the door locks). One thing to remember when grabbing the wires is that once you cut them, you need to know which side goes to the switch in the door and which side goes to the lock motor. This is critical since you will blow fuses if you do it wrong.

Clutch bypass is Yellow at the switch above the clutch. You can connect the starter output directly to this wire instead of at the main ignition switch.

The door input is a critical connection allowing the remote start to work. As the manual states, there is a procedure that must be followed before the remote start can work. I don't know how autostarts work, but typically you need to have the car running by the key, then pull the ebrake, put car in neutral and then either you need to press start on the transmitter which turns on the remote starter, or unit will turn on itself when it sees the ebrake pulled (sometimes it needs to be pulled twice) I am not sure why i am telling you this, it is all in the manual.
Then, you need to open the door and close it again (the unit must see the door open and close for it to work - That is why you need to hook up the door input) Then you shut off the car with the remote and NOW you are in what is commonly referred to ad "Ready Mode".

Then if you installed everything correctly the remote start should work.

When installing the door input, be sure to test that every door is covered. I show a yellow wire at the light switch as the dome sensor and it is negative. I also show that each door has its own door pin wire and they are all located at the back of the drivers side fuse panel. The dome sensor should cover all doors, but make sure that it does in all positions. Some vehicles have a dome override which can cause that wire not to sense the doors opening all the time depending on where you grab the wire.

E-Brake wire is Gray/Black at the switch or going to the cluster.

Be very careful though this is not an easy first time install and a very dangerous one unless you know what you are doing.
