Installing a DEI 561t remote start and 556U in this car and hoping anyone can verify the diagrams on this site any any pointers. I understand this year is a challenge with changes.

 It has factory security and keyless entry 2dr

 thanks and happy new year

Notes:
NOTE: This vehicle is equiped with the EWS II immobilizer system that need to be bypassed when adding a remote start. Use DEI module 555B. *1 The alarm plug is a black 12 pin plug located just behind the glove box. It is mounted with the pins facing you atop a vent just to the left of the body computer. Other wires at the alarm plug are: 12V- RED / white; Accessory- PURPLE / white; Siren- BLACK/ blue; Ground- BROWN / orange. Do not use the power sources at the alarm plug to operate high-current devices. The other side of the siren wire is mounted in a 2 pin plug at the passenger rear corner of the engine compartment. The other wire in the plug is a brown ground wire. DEI recommends attaching the siren at this point. *2 The wire is located in a white connector behind the instrument cluster. Do not unplug the white connector with the ignition on or turn the ignition on with the plug disconnected.     *3 These wires are the separate left and right parking light wires. Use both wires and isolate each. *4 Door triggers are BROWN / gray for the drivers front door, BROWN / blue for the passenger front door. Use both wires and diode isolate each. *6 Located in a single pin connector next to the factory alarm plug.    *7 If equipped with a factory alarm, the alarm will be plugged into the factory alarm plug. The only way to arm and disarm the factory alarm is with the factory remote. If your planning on using the 8360 pre-wired alarm harness the factory alarm must absent or removed.

Profuse,

Thank you for the fast reply

 Do you have details on using the 556U for this model also

 I only have the 555U and the colors are different from the 556U... just want to be sure before starting the job which option will work best.

Standard - putting antenna over factory ring, Alternate 1 - splicing into 1 side of factory module, Alternate 2 - Splicing into one side of factory module and tapping into other.

Cheers,

Stan

Ok here is what I have found so far and I hope someone can steer me in the right direction on the 12 pin alarm plug as I have found differently see below. Any help is appreciated.

 the alarm/keyless module located directly over passenger dash panel cover is a 30 pin green connector right at the module with 4 quadrants

 Here are the colors (note: there are 2X BLACK / YELLOW, blue/green, /and purple)
white, blue/green, purple, brown, BLACK / YELLOW, BLACK/ green, BLACK/ red, BLACK/ white, WHITE/ red, blue, black, green, blue/green, BLACK / YELLOW, red, purple, yellow
Thanks,
Stan
