I have read the FAQ by mazdaracer, but it does not say much about the 5spd install. I want to put in a remotestart/alarm on my P5. What do I need to do?

I want one because of how cold it gets up here in Maine. I never leave my car parked in gear. I could leave my car out of gear and p-brake off and my car would not move, Flat land. Can you suggest an alarm/remote start?MODS:

My car will start in gear also. I have an alarm picked out. It says it will work for a 5spd Here's the link. I know a guy that will install it, but he has never installed a r/s on a 5 spd. So with that being said, I want to know as much as I can so I can help him out. Will the wire diragram work for me that you posted in your sticky rider?MODS:

Blue your alarm's web page had a remote start for a manual transmission when I clicked on it. I love the remote on the one you have. How many batteries have you gone through?2001 ES (Featured at SoundDomain)

I just got the Compustar 2WSS w/ remote and security last week on my 5 spd Pro 5. It is impossible to start the car in gear because you must put the car in neutral and set the e-brake before you get out. If you don't do this (put it in reservation mode) will not be able to remote start the car. So far it has worked great. Only thing I don't like is that the sensors are not sensitive enough...I managed to wash it yesterday with out setting off the alarm???
Technology has its price - $650 for the set up.
My advice would be to contact Compustar and ask them to refer you to an authorized dealer in your area. I did this and had it installed 4 days later!"Ever dance with the Devil in the pale moon light?"

im still confused on this. . . ..so since we have the neutral trigger wire. ..we can just get any remote starter alarm (i have 5spd) or does it still have to be specifically made for 5 speed trannies. ... i would rather not use reservation mode as the engine will not shut off until you put the car in nuetral (i like the simpler idea of taking the key out and engine turning off)2003 P5 Midnight Blue
