KP Module hook-up - NEED QUICK HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
ok, fairly simple getting to everything.
I'm stuck at the KP Yellow wire. Does it go to the thin Green w/ White strip at the white multi-pin connector????
I wrote down that it goes to a yellow with green stripe and there isn't such a wire.
Please respond quick - I'm running out of time!!!

That's what I went off of right before I posted the question.
The problem is that I read in some other post which wires went to what and the yellow was wrong.
To anyone who is about to do it, here are exact wire to wire instructions:
(on white multi-pin connector)
KP Yellow goes to (thin) Green w/ White stripe
KP Red goes to (thick) Green w/ White stripe
KP Black goes to (thick) Black - solid w/ no stripe
(on gray 3 pin connector)
KP Green goes to (thin) White w/ Red stripe
(on hidden loom which wires into main connectors)
KP Blue goes to (thin) Yellow w/Black stripe

Oh, by the way, everything works just like it should. I soldered every connection and then electrical taped to secure the joint and prevent moisture. The hardest part was unplugging the factory switches to get the panel off....which I just flipped the panel upside down to see the release tabs of the switches.
Cheap and relatively easy mod...granted you know which wires to splice into.

So, I've opted for T-Taps and that's how I accidentally cut the small green/white cable.
After fixing everything I used lots of electrical tape to make sure all wiring are secure.
That's why took my like a little more than 2 hours (that's including going back to Radio Shack to get wires, which I only used few inches)
I left the yellow disconnected... so now if I have multiple windows open while driving and I want to close all of them automatically (without touching and holding the window switch)... all I do is hit the lock buttom twice... and BOOM all my windows and sunroof close...

I don't have solder equipments, and my parking is underground, I can't find a power outlet near my car.

so I had all the outlets and I do have a solder equipment (did footrest lighting before).....plus I had 3 extra cars there if I needed something

I'll preface this by admitting I haven't even looked at the instructions, but when you are splicing in the module wiring, are you just removing some of the insulation from the factory wire and then just soldering the KP wire to the exposed section? Then wrapping the splice with tape to protect it? On the other hand, would it be worth it to cut the factory wire so you could add some heat-shrink tubing and then soldering the wires back together?

Glad you got it all hooked up and working. I'll probably install mine sometime soon. I think I'm going to solder the wires also since there's a lot of vibration in the door and moisture seems to get in there pretty easily. Plus, like has been mentioned, the wire sizes vary which doesn't work well with the t-taps.

i put the t-tabs on there....and not even one wire was connected properly....

This is what I did:
1> i took everything out
2> took all the t-tabs previously installed out (the wires were just pressed in and not spliced)
4> took a "not so sharp" knife and cut the insulation a little. And if the insulation wouldnt still come off then using a solder iron I heated the insulation off the wire
5> then i spliced the K&P wire
6> i put a whole bunch of solder on the original car wire.....
7> i wound the K&P spliced wire on the car wire with solder....
8> soldered the shit on there
9> put electrical tape around the soldered part and then put some more tape around the K&P wire and then around all the wire

10> put everything back together
