hey i already searched and couldnt find it, i got my new lock kit all set up but i havent plugged it in yet. directions say got to the battery but id rather stay inside the firewall and leave that mess outta my engine bay. if anyones has done this conversion where did you get your power from?

You'll need relays, and a keyless entry system or alarm.

He already has a alarm. Hook up the lock/unlock wires from the alarm to the lock/unlock wires of the lock kit per instructions from both items. Depending on the alarm company you already have a relay more then likely for the lock/unlock.

Get power from the ignition harness. That harness is capable of holding down alot of power. Dont forget your DMM or a decent reputable test light, and stay away from yellow plugs :p

I wouldn't use a test light....go with the DMM, so many things you can do with one.
