Yes, I know this has been asked before. I searched, but only found questions regarding 94-95, and even those weren't really fully answered. Plus I dont know how much changed between 95 and 96.
So a couple of weeks ago I pulled out the alpine aftermarket junk that the PO installed terribly (resulting in it falling behind my clutch pedal on my drive home that evening). Normally I'd put it back and install it correctly, but the remote is the touchiest thing ever (Buttons have no pressing feel. Have to press the unlock button several times to make it work, and if you hold it a second too long the alarm sounds) and the alarm makes the dumbest chirping noise when you lock or unlock it.
I'd really just like to get the factory ford unit and a ford remote. I've heard the harness is there regardless of whether or not you have it, but unsure how true this is. Assuming the plugs are there (I haven't been inclined to tear the trunk completely apart to look yet), is this really as plug and play as some people make it out to be? I can't find any real info on it other than that the plug may or may not be there.
And if not, anyone have any experience with ancient Alpine alarms?
