Yes. I have 2001 Jetta GLS and I bought the remote starter from Circuit City for 79.99 and they installed it for 120.00 plus taxes. Before installation they asked for a spare remote key which they needed to plug into the by-pass circuit. It stays there forever. Then they charged me $50.00 extra for the by-pass and another $32.00 for opening my door to fix the locks. So I ended up paying about $298.00 for the whole affair. My kit is 'Python 400XP'. And yes, they require you to have an auto transmission.
Yes, They highly recommend that the car have an Automatic transmission. It should cost between $200.00 and $500.00
