Installing an alarm on my 1985 Cuttlass Supreme Brougham

I lives in a pretty bad area. People keep messing with my car at night. Im stuck on how to wire the keyless entry. The instructions that came with it suck. Can anyone please help me?

Well, a make and model of the system would help, along with the instructions for wiring that part, and a wiring pinout of the system.

Thank your for responding Lady & Rob. Turns out I had to install two 12 volt relays for the lock/unlock systems in the alarm module.

The relays sound like normal fare for that lock setup. Glad you got it working.
Also get yourself a CLUB or such to provide a visual deterrent. My 86 was once broke into and the column busted. Luckily they could not get the steering wheel unlocked and they gave up.
Hope your car is left alone. A sidearm might be a good idea, too.
