The locks are negative pulse, RED / white and RED / yellow, in the drivers kickpanel. No relays needed. No neutral safety switch needed either for an automatic. No bypass, Tacoma's didn't need them until 06. If it has an alarm, it's either aftermarket or dealer installed. There was no alarm option in 97...

ok kool,

For the door locks no relays needed just tap in to it an it will work without a relay??

So how would I go and install the remote start?

Also I dunno but there is a red ststues led on his steering column and I guess it is a factory installed alarm, so how would I go and bypass it if it is??

Nope don't need relays for the door locks. If it has a dealer installed alarm the only sure way to find out what is, is to find the brain in the dash somewhere. Follow the wires from the led and they lead to it. Get the model number and make of it and I am sure someone will have some info on it. Print off a diagram of this truck and remember to verify what a wire is before connecting it, they are pretty straight forward to install a remote start on.

Honestly, if you are installing an alarm/RS combo the best thing to do is just remove the dealer installed alarm....
