take the glovebox out and unwire it. remove the all the tape so you can see all the wires before cutting anything
Work out which are feeds and earths ( red or black and brown on the cav side)
work out the cuts- wires that end and then new ones sodered onto the end going into the box into pairs for rejoining and thats about it.

Having a wiring diagram really isnt needed for removal

As gaz says, just trace the pairs carefully and reinstate the original connections. The dsa was a system they started fitting in the later part of my time in the vauxhall network, and was supposed to be a high quality security solution. Reality is that they are often fitted badly and as a result the wiring and immobilised circuits are easy to traces and remove. Even if it has been done well it's still just a case of patience. I have removed many over the years at the roadside, even the once famed vector system which was marketed to be impossible to get around.

It wouldn't been as bad if I could understand this alarm system; it seems to have a mind of it's own! I've never had any luck with car alarms over the years :(
Thx for your help guys; will have a look and see if I can kill the fudgery
