If you installed the 1st unit.... use the connections you already made. If you didn't, test first.

oh sorry the wires that I am concerned about on the vision guard 8000 is:
-the 2 battery input (red wires on the 6-pin harness)
-the +12v relay power output (red wire on the door lock/unlock wire harness)
-the passenger unlock output(-) (blue/white wire on the 20 pin harness.
all the other wires the astra 4000rs-2w-1 has it.

Hey KTM I found a good deal on a crystal ball, maybe You Howie and I can chip in and get it.

The 2 large red constant power wires you cite there can be swapped with the ones on the Astra 4000's external relay bank.
If the Astra works your door locks now, ignore that 12v relay power wire - it's only used with a plug-in door lock relay.
If you'd like the VisionGuard to do priority unlocking (driver's door on the first press, all doors on the second) that is when you'd use that passenger unlock output.
