i can get you info on the wires for your constant 12 volt wire starter wire ignition wire accessory wire and if it has one a key sense and if it has one a second accessory wire. these are the wires under the kick pannel that are a thicker set of wires. if anyone needs any info on them i can get it

I have been using bulldogsecurity.com for all my ignition/starting needs for about 6 years. Head over there and search for your vehicle. I just used them for my 92 XJs keyless entry/starter as I got the system used from Craigslist. Anywho. Check them out.
