yea, the last 3 series i did had the bcm below the glove box (for lock/unlock) and i grabbed everything else from the column as usual. good luck and hope this helps."I cannot teach anybody anything, I can only make them think."

tanx for all ur suggestions and help. yesterday  i installed my keyless entry on my car and it was successful. How do i do that?  i focus on pin 16 &3, i removed the existing  wires  on pin 16 & 3 and tapped the lock and unlock wires of  keyyless entry to the pin 16 & 3 and  I soldered diode to each existing wires  that  i removed and tapped to the ulock and unlock wires  (keyless entry) and it works.       diode connection is facing away to the existing wires
