Does the vehicle have to be in neutral for it to start? and if you try to start it while it's in gear...it just won't.....Or will it be wired up so that it can start in gear?

The remote start Iam putting on my car right now is for use with standard vehicles....

There is a negative input for the parking break switch.... so if the parking break aint on, the car won't start.....

Clutch safety switch gets bypassed temporarily in that case. IMO, remote starters in standards is retarded. It doesn't seem worth it to go through the 1293 steps to put the car in "ready" mode when it would probably take less time to walk out to your car in the morning and start it with the key. That, and the liabilty issues if something goes wrong. My dad used to own an '86 Mustang that would actually start in gear. I don't know too many shops around here that still do manuals...
