Do your parents have a bank account? If so, almost ALL banks now have debit cards that have the visa logo or mastercard logo on it which means they can be used AS a credit card. What it'll do is act like you wrote out a check but in fact, you "charged" it. It's quite convienent.

Its illegal to have a remote start system installed on a manual car.
That doesnt mean it will stop shop owners from installing them.

But yes you could install a remote start system in a manual car just keep it in neutral all the time.

Im using something similiar to the DEI module for the key but it has a built in chip that memorizes the chip code.

I have that and it works fine with my autopage 850

What would happen if the car was accidently started (manual transmission) in 1st gear, but had the E brake pulled all the way up?
