2.3-16 wiring an remote start central locking kit

Hey...


Ive recently purchased an 1987 190 2.3 cosworth and would like to modernise slightly, can't be dealing with using they key to unlock/lock and if I'm going to all the hassle may as well add remote start (get the engine up to temp and ready to go being an old car etc)

Im not looking for any high end fancy kits, seen a universal kit on ebay for around £40

the kit i am installing is a HAWK HA280 pro


If any can please provide with the information on where the find the following
cables and colouring of them i would gratefully appreciate it.
