installing trc zr-25 in '82 olds cutlass

i am completely lost... i have a 1982 oldsmobile cutlass supreme (v6 - 3.8 liter) and am trying to install a trc zr-25 remote starter with keyless entry (http://www.trc12volt.com/main-security.html). i have heard from other people who have installed their own remote starting units that wiring diagrams are available specifically for these installs. i have the chilton's manual for my car, but it is only confusing me more. is anything more specific, or perhaps written in smaller, more idiot-friendly words available? any help would be much appreciated.

good lluck with that one. All my wiring references only go back to 1988. Sorry I couldn't help. I tried..

wow... thanks a lot. this is me being a real pain in the ass: where are the ignition module and ignition harness?

Here is the more interesting question..... Is the car fuel injected? Gus Wherever I go, that is where I end up......

indeed it is not.

another question: "pin 6: +12v ignition input. this wire must connect to a main ignition wire at the ignition harness. this wire must show +12v when the ignition is on and while cranking the starter. the voltage must not drop when the car is starting." does this mean the wire needs to show +12 when the key is turned to 'radio on - engine off' position, when the starter is cranking, and not when the key is out? what about when the engine is running? i would just assume that this is the pink wire indicated above, but the instructions say to connect to "ignition 1 output (negative) to activate external relay," which i have noted as possibly being a pink wire also, and that is confusing my situation somewhat.

I'll start with saying that putting a remote starter into a non fuel injected car isn;'t a good idea. Most carburated cars tend to not start well when it is cold out (compared to a fuel injected vehicle), even when immaculately tuned and maintained...... If the Questioned wire requires ignition, then the wire you need will show 12V when the key is turned to on/run/crank.   It won't show voltage in the key back/radio position. On older GM's, it is pink in the ignition harness coming from the key, and will be found along the lower part of the column coming off of the ignition switch. Here you will also find the following: Purple starter, orange accessory(heater), brown accessory (radio, wipers, maybe windows, amybe not windows), and a couple red 12V all the time. Tach is white at the distributor or coil, parklights are brown at the switch, and brake is white at the brake switch at the pedal. HTH Gus Wherever I go, that is where I end up......

i have a plan for starting the car when it's cold, unless there's any safety concern with remote starting a carburated car (like... if the worst thing that can happen is that it wont work) then i will go ahead with the install. your colors seem to agree with my observations. if the vehicle doesnt have a tach in the dash, is there still a tach wire? the manual seems to require a +12 ignition input, and a separate negative ignition output coming from the remote starter's external relay block (as indicated in previous 'pink wire vs pink wire' post).
