I'm having a hard time reading that one because I'm on mobile and colors aren't specified from what I can tell.

rla2005 - Thank you for the push towards the passenger side kickpanel. Removing it revealed a number of connectors, but unsure which Ford wires I should tap into? Thats the key here....

Here are the directions that came with my unit, their tag line just kills me.

OK, replying to my own post above here....took a closer look at the first diagram posted in this thread and looks like the ford wires I need to tap into are:

Lock - pink/violet? (PK/V)

unlock - pink/lavender green? (PK/LG)

What do you think?

I think you're right. I'd let someone more knowledgeable chime in. Mine has to tap into the switch too so I'm hoping I can take a closer look and get it figured out next weekend and mark everything on my harness to what color it needs to go to.
