can someone help me install this?
I under stand how to install all the hardware, but i dont't really understand the wiring for the kill switch. I'm not too much of an electric guy. I have a shop manual, but still clueless.

here are the instructions

 

here some more info
my bad, its only 40 bucks http://www.jcwhitney.com/product.jht...D=4708&BQ=jcw2

 

be more specific on what you don't understand.....sorry, but those instructions seem pretty good and simple

 

I under stand the instructions, but where can i find the wires ont eh car.

i dont want to cut any wrong wires u know?
Im really bad at wiring. but im too broke to have someone else do. I trust myself more then i trust shops......i got many quotes on this thing and the installers looked clueless.

i go ranges form 40-200 just to install.....

 

Why bother with that, why not just buy a alarm for like $150-$200 and you get the starter kill, power door lock cotrol and much more. Most of the time, the alarm will come with a lifetime warranty also, depending on which brand you buy. I suggest you just go out and get a car alarm, even a cheap one will come with a starter kill.

 

yeah but not all cheap alarms come with hoodlocks, and the hoodlock is what i think minty wants..... since the starter kill comes with the hoodlock might as well attach that too and get your moneys worth

yah, i bought this device like in feb. when my car was broken into, hood popped and parts stolen at school....I dorm and leave my car in the lot, not anymore.

Since this comes with a starter kill, imight as well use it. it was onyl 40 bucks for this thing, and i am flat broke.

can u guys ehlp with the installation?

 

oh a little more info on this.

when hood is locked, u can NOt start the car
u need the key to unlock teh hood from inside ure car, then u can start the car.

I can hide the key hole switch for the hood where i can find a good place(not telling

 

I've got the same thing but withought the starter kill since my alarm already has that. I placed the end where you stick the key in right next to the center console, above the gas pedal. I ran the cable past the firewall on the left side of the engine. Drilled some holes next to the hood latch and attatched the actual locking mechanism. The only drawback I see is that my hood is unevenly closed. The side opposite where the lock is located is lower and does not evenly flush with the fender. Oh well, small price to pay for sleeping better at night.

 

You need a wiring diagram. When I get home I'll check my manual and post what colors each wire are.

 

hehe thx guys.
wiring=scray
Im gonna give the hardware a shottoday, and seek out more info with the wiring.
gonna give it a looky

 

Yes, follow the wires reom the starter, you will NOT want that high current wire, it will be thicker. Usually there is a connector for these wires on the pass. side in front of the shock tower or in that area. Follow the wires, it will be easy to find. Cut and splice the wires, solder them. Remember to place the relay under the hood where a thief cant get to it if the hood is locked.
