Appears I'm wrong about "All". The RobbMc I bought specifically stated you cannot wire one that way. Still I don't think it would be at all necessary but if someone still wanted to go with a remote relay, you would sure need to check if the particular mini starter you have can be wired that way.
If I were to mount a battery in the trunk, then I would use a remote solenoid next to the battery whether I was using a mini starter or not. It's a good for safety when the positive cable is that long to have it only be hot when the engine is cranking.
