remote start, 07 tacoma

Putting a remote start/security system in my 07 Tacoma. What is the dome light supervision? Is it worth hooking up?

No. If the vehicle's dome light stays on for up to a minute after you shut the door but shuts down immediately you lock it then like most Toyotas you already have it and you connect the alarm NEG door trigger to the wire marked dome supervision.

So I can hook the door trigger to the dome light wire as a door monitor?

Yes, providing it already works as I described above.

That is how it works, but I thought the door trigger is a neg input and the dome light is positive. Maybe it's neg though idk

No such thing as maybe, TEST, OK I'm winding you up. Blue (-) NEG dash fuse box, black 13 pin plug (1E), pin 9.

Ok I just didn't have the manual in front of me here. But I'll be metering everything when I do it tomorrow.

Good, with out trying to sound facetious, patronising or condescending please please re-read my signature line. We get more problems arising from people assuming and not testing than anything else.

I'm in the middle of hooking up a remote start on my 07 Tacoma. I'm getting confused by the wording on the Viper harness diagram, so I need some quick help. Can you take a look at these 2 links, one being the wiring for my Tacoma and the other being the install instructions for the Viper unit, and let me know which wires go to which between the 2 (only for the 10-pin heavy-gauge remote start harness): http://www.bulldogsecurity.com/bdnew/vehiclewiringdiagrams.asp (you'll have to select "Toyota" and then scroll down to where it says "2005-2008" under Tacoma) http://www.12voltdistributors.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/09/Viper_5904V_Installation_Guide.pdf Thanks in advance.

You will need an additional 30/40 Amp SPDT relay with 20 Amp fuse to power the Tacoma's Starter2 circuit.  Wire as follows :

Soldering is fun!
