Sorry for the lack of direct detail, I forgot to take pics before the installation so I had to take it afterwards, after it was over 1/2 way cleaned up. Not pictured is the parking light (+) which can be found on the front of the fusebox in the lower left plug (I believe it is a gray plug)Kenny

Thanks for the writeup!! I will start taking lots of pictures on my next installs and start posting pictorials also. Great job!!

You are sooo lucky! On UK build r/hand drives we have to go into the driver's door to do the locks and hatch release. Go to the in door control unit and do 5 wire on the motor wires. No factory alarms then on ours, no knee pad, trunk trigger through domelight and we had to add a hood pin. Also those photos are the wrong way round for me.

Excellent write-up.  Great photos.  Two thumbs up.      Thanks, Kenny! Soldering is fun!

Excelellent pics thanksllosminos n.c

It has just occurred to me; you are soooo lucky having that green plug in the driver's kickpanel, I have to go to the lock control inside the driver's door and 5 wire it! Mind you window close was easy on that one wasn't it.

Hi mate, Did you install relays to make the power door work ? I need help with this plz. Can you also tell me where do you locate the trunk release wire.I know I can remove the door and by pass a wire to the button, but it would be too much work. Thanks
