[Mk2] [Generic] Remote start alarm

Quick question,

I am after a wire that is 12v live when the ignition is on, and no voltage or ground soon as or within a few seconds of the engine being started.

Its so the alarm knows that the engine is running, and to stop repeatedly trying to start the car.


Thanks in advance.
