I have a 1997 Cadilliac Deville, the alarm output coming off the alarm is positive, I have a single wire connecting the trunk release  in the trunk, I followed it to the front where the switch is located, it is a black and white wire sending off a negative output, I am having trouble hooking it up to the relay can I get alittle help, please and also, I have a positive charge coming off for the parking lights, I have two wires for the parking lights, do I need to hook them to a relay also, and if so how do I do it. Thank you

Eric

Don't know the Alarm U R using
Trunk Release should be BLACK or BLACK/ White at switch.  Do you have a designated Trunk Release wire from your Alarm Module?

You can use 1 of your Parking light wires to operate a SPDT Relay to convert to Negative for your Gray/Black Parking Lite wire @ headlight switch
OR
U can run a wire to trunk and hook up to Purple wire (Positive) on Parking Lite Relay
