This is a 97 mustang V6 if it makes any difference. I'm trying to instal a remote start from astra i was doing fine found most of the wires needed the locks work and the trunk works but i couldn't find the dome light cable i know it's BLACK/ L blue but can't find it in the kick panel others say it could be gray but i cheked from the light at the dome and it is that color but it's imposable to fallow unless i remove the head linner and also couldn't find the oem alarm dis arm it's D GREEN/ purple but couldn't find it also. My other question is i know i need a bypass for the remote start i got the IB-F1 one goes to ground other goes to ignition and next is not used then it says RX for one and the last one is TX what does that mean and how would i program it if it needs any for it to work properly. any help would be really appreciated. thanks

From Diretechs
Factory Alarm Disarm dark GREEN/ purple - driver kick or
Notes: Anti Theft Control Unit located left rear of trunk behind trim panel.

No wire is stated for domelight.

Door Trigger gray or blu/org +/- either kick panel
Notes: Anti Theft Control Unit located left rear of trunk behind trim panel.

Never heard of the bypass module you are using, you can use DEI 555f and it works the same as programming a new Ford key.

Bypass

Most likely your bypass is this.
Connect it like the picture. Doesnt state color, but you should be safe.

Programming is also stated in the manual

I've never found that mysteriouse GREEN/ purp disarm in the kick panel of any ford, I usually catch it at the drivers door boot.. The tx/rx wires are refering to the PATS module you can follow the wires from the ign barrel [usually 4 18/20awg wires on the bottom of the cylinder. one is ground one is ign and the other 2 send the signal to the bcm [tx/rx], ya might catch the dome light at the switch too...
