Default Installing aftermarket alarm

Is there any thing i should know about before doing this in a 2008 Camry CE 5 speed manual?

I got a basic Hornet (DEI) alarm system/keyless entry for the new car. Mainly for the keyless entry. The car comes with power locks but no clickers until you get into the more $$ models. I have done this same one on my truck when i had it before trading for the camry.

Just didnt know if there was anything i should look out for when doing this.

Thank you,
Timothy

Someone here will post wire colors I would assume, if not, here is 2007 info, which is usually near the same. A volt meter and tester and this info and you should be good to go...

If the system has some kind of ignition lock out or horn alarm make sure you understand what triggers it and how to reset it. Reason being more then one owner has unhooked the battery to work on the car or replace it, only to find when reconnected the car will not start or a alarm is now sounding. Then the don't know what to do.
