Thanks.
I'd say it's a good sign, as one (of the many) connections needed for the retrofit is connecting to the mirror to make the red lamp below the rearview mirror work. Another easy hint for alarm pre-wired you'll find underneath the hood, right side, just behind the firewall at the upper rubber edge, there would be a tied up connector for the hood switch.

My estimate is that pre-wired will save you 4-5 hours (dis)assembly and wiring work (reduced to ~1-2 hours).
