If you're to cheap to buy a module, you'll have to waste your time access the door trigger wires in the driver's side door panel and then routing them back into the car through the door wire tunnels. It's a PITA. Believe me, it's worth the money just to buy the module.

If you don't believe, just PM PeterUbers. He'll tell you the same thing.

Seriously? You're gonna waste so much time if you don't buy the module (I'm assuming Bypass Kit) THat will make your life so much easier. Just get it and you just have to wire the alarm into the bypass kit, and you'll have doors, trunk, and the factory alarm will still arm!
