I'm in the process of installing an alarm in my sister's Neon and I just wanna make sure I've got everything ready. I made up a diagram of what I've got planned out and I wanted to make sure I have the right idea:

There are a couple points that I'm at that I'm getting confused. My first question is about the dome supervision and trigger wire. I'm kinda confused on what wires to connect them to, especially since the car has factory dome delay. According to the chart on this site, it says to use the yellow wire, however it also mentions "to avoid the dome light delay use the tan wire in the driver kick for the driver door and the blue/orange wire in the passenger kick for the passenger door, use both wires and diode isolate each." Which one do I want to use, and I'm assuming that I'm basically connecting the trigger wire (green) and the dome supervision (BLACK/ white) wires together?

My next question is about the door locks. The car originally had manual locks, I managed to find some factory power latches and actuators out of a junkyard from a car that had power locks. I bench tested them all and they seem to work well, and I found that if I wire them like an aftermarket actuator they function perfectly. They are already installed in the car and by jumping them straight to the battery I think they're gonna work out well. What I'm curious about is the current draw, according to my alarm's owner's manual as long as the total load doesn't exceed 30 amps I can wire them directly to my alarm without any external relays (keeping in mind that there will be 4 of them).

Other than these two issues I think I've got the rest pretty much figured out, but if anyone has any input it would be greatly appreciated.

It's a Viper 850XV. So would I be best off to wire the door locks to an external relay or can I run them straight off of the alarm? And what should I connect the trigger and the dome supervision wires to?
