Hey everyone.
I'm gonna get the alarm in the mail soon and i want to know what wires i need to tap into. My 1st question is: where do u guys drill the hole for the red blinking light? i want a place where it wont affect my car much if the alarm burns out. 2: do i need a diode for the alarms un/lock door wires. (so when i'm in the car and i push the button to lock the doors it wont burn my alarm) yup i have power locks already. the box says"Door Locks & Parking lights Built-In Relays" ![]() 3: the brake light thing. i was reading a post b4 and it mentioned a wire at the tail-light fusebox. where is that? and how do i attach that? ![]() 4: what wire (color and location) is the parking light relay, so the lights blink 4 the alarm. 5: this alarm has remote start. the box says "Built-In Start Relays,Accessories,Ignition,Starter Outputs" so what wires do i need to play with ( coomer?) yea i never did this remote start installation b4. and dont worry i have an automatic tranny. 6. I'm thinking about installing a proximity senor with this car. so i can leave my windows down while its infront of my house. where should i mount it? well that is about it. thanks in advance. i just need to know what these wires look like and where they are at. ![]() |

To splice into the wires, I cut the car's existing wire, strip off a little bit off of each end, then put on heat shrink tubing. After that, I twist the car's wires together along with the extra wire, and then solder them, and then slide the heat shrink tubing over the connection and heat it up.
I'm confused as to what exactly you're asking about the ignition wire. Do you not want people to be able to start the car with the key, and only with the remote start? If so, then you'd cut the starter wire, and just connect the side that's not going into the ignition harness to the starter wire of your alarm. You could write a how-to article, but it'd be kind of tough to do because every alarm is different, and every alarm can be installed very differently in the same car. ![]() -------------------- New Toyota project coming soon...
