We need to know what color wire is connected to which terminal of the relay.

The yellow wire connects to the BLACK / YELLOW wire at your ignition switch harness. The white wire on the relay connects to the BLACK/ white wire in the same harness. The red wire needs to be connected to the white wire (on the car harness, not the white wire of the relay) in that same harness. The black wire of the relay needs to be connected to one of the black wires of the switch. The other black wire of the switch needs to be grounded.

You should not cut any wires to add this piece. If all connections are made between alarm connections and the key cylinder, this will not affect the remote start or the starter kill. The instructions I posted simply parallels this device with the key cylinder. Your key will still start the car if you just tap into the wires I listed. The only reason I can see for them cutting a wire would be to disable the start function of your key. This would be a bit of a theft deterrent if the pushbutton switch was hidden. I am guessing you are not planning to hide the pushbutton. Is there a diode on the socket of the relay? If so let me know what terminals it is connected to and which terminal the end with the silver band is connected to.

The diode is not necessary. But if there is one on there already it matters which side of the diode gets the positive voltage. If no diode no sweat. If so just let me know before you connect anything.
