Adding a keyless remote system 850

Has anyone here retrofited a keyless remote system to an 850 that did not originally ship with one?

I have a bottom-of-the-line '96 wagon, N/A, manual.

If I locate a receiver box (the one that looks like it is mounted under the dash, to the right of the glovebox) in a junkyard, besides the remote fob, is it likely that that is all I will need to get the remote system up and running? Are there any additional wiring harnesses, or other parts, needed.

The fobs look like they are pretty readily available on eBay.
