remote starter install 200 1989

I did this job but I do not remember everything very well specifically. I ended up connecting several things at the back of the ignition, a real pain in the ass.

There is one thing that you forgot and that is the sigal wire to power the fuel pumps (I think it was a thinner red/black wire). I think the Ignition Wire, starter wire you will have to get off the back of the ignition (thats the way I did it anyway.) The fuel pump relay wire will goes from the ignition to the relay so you can tap that wherever along there.

The parking light wire is no problen just pull it off the back of the switch. The break light signal wire is also easy to get to.

The unlock/lock wires run right beneath the steering column but you may need to do some tricks with relays depending on what kit you use. You will also need to run a seperate line and add an actuator for the drivers side door. Depending if you want to unlock the driver's door seperatly you will be needing another relay.

The accessory wire can be done off the fuse box.

The tach wire should just be spiced in behind the instument cluster.

And yes you will need a fused line to the battery.

This job is not too bad if you have a wiring chart and some patience.
Good luck.
