I am attempting to install cruise control in my 1997 Toyota Corolla.  The
instructions cover up to 1995.
What I need to know is the color and location of the wire fron the vehicle

As some of you know, my son was driving my 2000 Echo, when he was struck from
behind.  You may also know that the initial paint jobs on Echoes sucked like

to work, and as my Corolla was aging, it often broke down on the road...at
