neither one is made for a manual car so you'll have to bypass your clutch switch

Isnt that only if you want remote start? My freind who used to work at Curcuit City told me to get this one and said all that has to be done is not to hook up the remote start.

well i wouldnt reccomend buying anything audio/security related off of ebay simply cause you get no warranty. says you get one, but its not valid because more then likely they are not authorized dealers. second i would stick with DEI for an alarm, viper, avital, vallet, hornet, all the same company and one big marketing scheme.
