Received the toad system today. Any ideas on wiring it in as there are no instructions

There's a control unit, two touch sensors for your keys, receiver for the dash with led which wires into a plug on the side of the CU

But how do I know where the bunch of wires goes from the CU?

I've just had a read that the switched live needs to be live whist cranking so don't connect it to the radio supply wire.
Anywhere on the green highlight will do.

I've got a great immobilizer in mine. It's called a manual choke. Most folks these days have never heard of 'em, 'cause Suzuki SJs are SO hipster.
There's three ways of doing things:

The right way,
The wrong way
And my way, which is like the wrong way but faster.

I had a gemini alarm immobilizer on my SJ when I bought it. It was a nice period accessory, except it kept triggering itself in the rain and it didn't always switch off. I lived with the niggles until me & the Mrs went shopping one day & it wouldn't switch off. We had to sit in medowhall car park while I poked & prodded the alarm whilst the alarm blared! Eventually it disarmed so when I got home I ripped it out.... disklock all the way now!

Ha ha thanks darrell.

With the control circuit wires that are taped together, do I just cut either the wire feed to the coil or signal to the starter and wire these two wires in so the current basically flows through the CU before the component?

The power and ignition wires I can just splice into the circuits I choose out of your diagram?

The permanent live can come straight off the battery (via a fuse). If anybody cuts this wire it will not run as the relays inside the control unit could not be energised.
