Hi,

I have a 1987 Corvette.   I want to install my Viper 211.   I have most everytning worked out on the wiring except I need to know it tte Vette is + or - with respect to the parking light flashing .   I belive it to be + in in that the Viper module puts out 12v to the park lights when the door receives  the unlock pulse. 

Thanks

Don

A car of that vintage and scarcity, i doubt anyone would have that answer at the top of their head. Got a meter?
