I've only done remote starters in these, but:
--At the driver's fuse box, there are a couple of thick constant-power wires.
--Also at the fusebox there are plenty of wires that test as ignition.
--Since the car can't be started without putting your foot on the brake, I would think if you just hooked up a "starter kill" onto the brake wire, that'd work.

Got it all handled....
Chris... You nailed it. I used large gauge wires by the fuse box for my hot(Black) and ign(blue) the (white) for the horn.
The "starter kill" we use is pretty low draw but I try for larger gauge wires whenever possible.
I don't trust how smart these cars are so I went to the module and interrupted the (blue) start wire. Went off without a hitch and no check engine lights.
Thanks all for the help!
