Default Remote Starter - How to hook up?

Dumb question, but I got a remote starter (just a button, nothing fancy).

It didn't come with instructions, I'm not sure where to hook up the black and red leads, and don't want to cause a short I shouldn't.

Thanks!
David

Kind of tough to do on a Chevy. On the starter solinoid, either one to the small stud on the inside towards the motor. The the other one to the large stud in the upper center. The large stud is hot, do not let the alligator clips ground.

How many leads does it have? Most just hook to the positive side of the battery and then to the small terminal that is marked "S" on the inner side of the starter solenoid. You might have to have the ignition key turned on.
