Ignition wiring

[piercedan]

I am starting to install an alarm, and the first step is to connect the start kill relay. The diagram says to connect some wires to the key ignition wires. How do I get to these wires? Do I have to go into the steering column, or is there another place to access them? If I have to go into the column, how do I take the airbag off. I know how to disable the airbag, but don't know how it comes off of the steering wheel.

Another easier way is to connect it to the VATS wires instead of the ignition wires....accomplishes the same thing and its much easier to do.

Can you let me know where this is.

what the directions are probably talking about is when you find the starter wire which is probably in a bundle of wires under the dash below the steering column. So usually when you hook up the starter kill relay you will cut the the starter wire, and one wire from the relay goes to the wire that goes into the steering column up to the key and the other side goes to the other side of the wire, sometimes the relay will have another wire that will be for like a ground. You dont take the steering wheel off for the installation.

take off the under plastic piece in front of the pedals, should just come off with a couple plastic pins. then take off the plastic dash piece, should be (2) phillip screws and (2) 7mm screws...

the wiring is right in front of you,
Constant 12v - red
ignition - Pink
acc. - Orange, brown
starter - yellow or purple (cant seem to remember)

all these wires are of 12 guage they are easily found amongst the other sizes... if it's that critical i'll go out and take a look...
