Step 0
Remove your ground wire from your battery. THIS STEP IS VERY IMPORTANT. DO NOT SKIP IT.

Step 1
Remove your center console. Open the arm rest, stick a flathead screwdriver under one of the two tabs (use a cloth to prevent scratching anything) and pry. It should pop right off. There will be a wire attached to the power mirrors. Stick your hand under there and unclip the harnass and remove it out of the way. You can probably see your security module now. Next, yank up on the next section around your shifter and remove that out of the way.

Step 2
Remove your clock. Just give it a good yank, and unclip the wires from the clock

Step 3
There are 4 wires that run to your clock. If you look at the back of the clock where the clip connected to, you will see it labeled each wire. +12v, Acc, Ilum, and Gnd. You will be concerned with only the "Acc" wire. This wire will only give power when the ignition is on. Tap this wire with a vampire clip and run your extra wire behind the vent, clock, and whatnot, until it comes down to where the shifter is. Proceed to run enough wire to where the security module, making sure to secure the wire along the way so that it does not interfer with anything else (especially the shifter).

Please note there is an extra few wires in my photo. I also tapped wires for my gauges here, so ignore color wires and go by what the labels on the back of the clock says.

Now Crimp a Quick Disconnect on the end of that wire and you can attact that to your relay's power
