I have done a few of these now. I use a bypass for the resistor values and key bypass and a 1 button remote starter since locks are in the key and work while the vehicle is running. Your main power will be in a large harness in the driver kick panel with your brake and park light wires. Power is heavy gauge I believe Black or Red off hand. Bypass wires and ignition at the ignition plug. Accessory not needed and bypass takes care of the rest up there. Horn will honk funny unless you get it at the relay under the hood so don't bother.  Just a tach, hood pin, and ground and your done (technically ground should be first).
