Depends on your alarm:
If your alarm has a "when disarmed" output use the Normally Open diagram
If your alarm has a "when armed" output use the Normally Closed diagram
The normally open diagram is preferred if both are possible with your alarm as when someone tries to start the vehicle without disarming the alarm, the relay does not click and give away it's purpose and location behind/under the dash.

Yes 86 to ignition switch HOT in RUN and CRANK wire
85 to alarm ground while disarmed*
87 to ignition switch START wire - ignition side of cut
30 to ignition switch START wire - starter motor side of cut
* the alarm MUST output a constant ground on this wire while the system is disarmed. A pulsed factory disarm or door lock unlock signal WILL NOT work.

Malibu, what kind of alarm do you have?
