Depending on the year of the car, they will be either in the drivers kick panel..or the passengers kick panel. The trunk pin is in the keyless module sometimes..like i said..depends on the year.
------------- With a torch and a big enough hammer...it WILL friggin fit!!

The colors you mentioned are correct.
Pickup the locks in the drivers door jamb boot (plenty of room) and the trunk in the drivers door sill. And yeah year would help too I'm assuming it's a newer one..Good luck,
Mike

Ok here is the best way to work in the boot:
1. Pull both ends of the boot loose. Just get a hold of the end flap or something and pull..
2. Insert the door side of the boot INTO the door itself.
3. Push the rest of the boot into the door and just enough of the car side of the boot so that it catches and doesn't move around on you. (Note: Do not push the entire boot into the door! It will be a pain to get out..) At this point you have almost the entire boot in the door out of the way with the exception of the part that attaches to the car side which should be about half way in the door as well.
4. Using this method keeps the boot out of the way for the most part and will allow you the most room to work with.
Once the boots out of the way wiring wise a lot of cars are a straight shot into the car. This one should be pretty straight forward, some cars have another grommet on the inside to get through. Basically use a spare wire and snake it into the car. Attach your wires to it and pull them back out into the boot. You may have to cut through some insulation or work around an ebrake mechanism. A lot of times you can reach one hand from the outside and one hand from the inside and meet in the middle which takes the need to snake a wire away. Make your connections, and be sure to put the boot back on it's real easy to forget about that! Some are tighter than others but they usually go back on without too much of a fight. Also be sure you get some solid connections as those wires move around a little everytime you open and close the door. Good luck,
Mike
