Push Start Install help

I need help installing a push start button on my car. I went to Autozone and got the kit and read the instructions... i got the basic idea. But what i need to know is where the ignition harness is and how to access it. Also I tried looking @ the wiring diagram for the Lancer as seen here:

https://www.evolutionm.net/models/la...irediag.php?s=

but i cant seem to decipher what wire color is serves what function. Like what is the 12v source and what is the ground and what is the ignition wire... etc.

Please

I paid $19 for that kit from autozone... as for a better picture of the instructions, i dont have one but the words by the relay are just the color names of the wires. Im gonna go check out the road race section for the turbo timer how-to.

well here's kind of a way to test the wires. pull out the key cylinder. connect a wire from the middle terminal. if you connect that wire to a terminal and the car tries to start, that's the starter terminal. if accessories go on, well that's the accessories terminal. and the middle terminal in the beginning is the hotwire. and that's how you hotwire a car, or put in a push button starter.
