Chris, forget the archives. Too much of a archaeological dig. Go straight
to the 20V list (www.20v.org) There are detailed instructions on how to
do it there. The beauty of our cars is that they already have central
locking, and remote keyless entry plays nicely with that system. You may
need to fix whatever is wrong in your drivers door though.

I added this to my 95 90 and I love it. It took about an hour to install.
I am partial to AutoLoc (even though they can't spell for crap) but any
brand would do.
