Almost forgot...wiring the interior lights was very easy.  I wanted the lights to activate with the unlock feature so I ran a wire from the unlock pin of the RAP to the Illumination Entry Timer located behind the rear seat (white/lt blue wire) or Pin #11 of the keyless entry module, also white/lt blue.  The activation of the interior lights requires  a negative pulse so a direct wire was the only thing required.

That is very cool.  Wiring diagrams are not my strong suit.  What is the minimum connections to do door locks and trunk only?

Here are the minimum connections to the donor keyless module for door locks only:

Ground
Battery +
Ignition
Lock wire from relay  (or keyless entry module if you have the buttons above the door handle)
Unlock wire from relay (or keyless entry module if you have the buttons above the door handle)

For the trunk release you must obtain a five-pin relay from any auto store to convert the negative signal from the donor keyless module to 12v +.  Very easy, just follow the wiring diagram below and connect the lead from pin #30 to the trunk release switch. Pin #86 connects to the donor keyless module. The other pin connections are self explanatory.

Is the trunk switch the button I push in the glovebox to "pop" the trunk?  Or does it have to be back in the trunk?

You can run the wire for the trunk release to either the "switch" (the button in the glove box) or the solenoid in the rear deck lid.  I spliced my wire to the glove box switch for proximity because I mounted the keyless module to the heater plenum.  See Posts #7 and #13 in this thread for options.

Does your Cat have the keyless entry (buttons above the driver's door handle)?

This thread has been a fun read, Tom helped me with this same conversion years ago.  I used a 98+ box but was unable to tie into the dome light as my car does not have illuminated entry.  I did do the trunk relay as you did to make that work.  What I never did do was try and use the extra button on a van remote to do something fun like roll up the windows.

NO.  Does that make it easier or harder?

I honestly dont think you could exceed the cost of a new car buy installing new *stock* parts everywhere in your coug our tbird. Its just plain impossible. You could revamp the entire drivetrain/engine/suspenstion and still come out ahead.
