Are they hard to install? Can you do it yourself or do you have to get somebody else to do it?

Can you put a remote start in a manual? just curious if it will bypass the clutch or not?

It's not for a beginner but not out of reach for a do-it-yourselfer

Yes, you just need to follow a shut down procedure.

something like press button, engage e-brake, neutral, key off, button. something that lets it know that u shut it down and kept it all in mind and left it out of gear.
