First of all i would like to say this really is a great website. The information here is very useful. First I'll list the stuff that I have.

2000 Ford F-150: No Factory power locks or security system

I'm in the process of adding the Crimestopper CS-865 RKE which is a keyless entry system. I have the Lock and Unlock working fine. I am not 100% positive on how I should go about hooking up the horn, lights, and dome light.

Here's a link to my manual in case you want to see what it says. http://www.crimestopper.com/techweb/InstructionBooks/Alarm/CS-865RKE.pdf

Here's what my manual says about how to hook up the lights: White wire: +12V or - negative parking light: connect to switched +12V parking light wire at back of light switch. So is this saying i connect to the wire that goes to the switch?....if so, do i need to use a relay?

I have the same question for the horn and dome light. I would appreciate any help i can get. Thanks in advance.

Basically, if the crimestopper has a positive lights output and you are connecting to a wire that shows 12 volts when you turn the lights on, you don't need a relay. Same with anything else. Your vehicle wiring info will tell you the polarity of your target wires, but it's up to you to test them to be sure. What does your info say about the wires you're connecting to?
