Re: Remote starters

["Jim Reeve" <ultra@xxxx>]

I actually just bought one of the AutoCommand remote start modules. 
I bought one designed for an Auto tranny, and has door lock controls 
and a basic alarm built right in. It also has several features in 
which it can monitor voltage, idle, lights, and many more things I 
cannot remember. Now, my car is a 5-speed. AutoCommand will void 
the warranty if installed in a manual, but I dont care. I am first 
going to hook it up for the lock controlls. Then I am going to put 
some limit switches inside the shifter, so the AutoCommand knows when 
it is in neutral. (Unless on a hill, I always park using the parking 
brake and leaving it in neutral) I know the D's electrical system 
pretty well, which is why I'm taking on such a complex project. But 
for general purpose, I also agree that a remote starter serves no 
usefull purpose in summertime DeLorean driving.
