I don't think it can be done unless they bypass the safety switch on the clutch.

My guess would be no ...
I believe when I was browsing through the forum a while back I read it was *possible* but too costly to justify doing it on an M6. Unless you've got the money in which case  More power to you. However I could be wrong *edit* Remember now why I thought it was cost prohibitive. The Viper system plus installation was around $700 or so for another member. For the sole purpose of getting the remote start, that seemed like a lot.

It *can* be done, but it's not a very good idea.

I think that most that want the remote start are ones that start it in their flat, level garage/carport so car movement wouldn't be an issue with just the parking brake. Not saying it is a good idea but if it is something you want then do it. Otherwise when parked elsewhere then it is in gear and parking brake engaged as well I would hope.

They do sell kits and it can be done; however, it is illegal in most states to have remote start on a manual transmission.

If you put one and you let someone drive your car, you need to remind them that it has it or else you risk this:

Disabling one or more of the interlocks (as some have done to apparently make using it a little less cumbersome) can result in a case of hell and handbaskets if anybody else ever gets hold of the remote. Google "luckydawg003 remote".

Plus your adding aftermarket electronics now tied into multiple modules... run into a warranty issue with the car, and it could get ugly.
