On the FRPP web site some time ago, I found an install guide PDF and copied it.
I'm not sure if it's still available or not. Assuming you are using the Ford GT start button, the directions say:
On the ignition switch connector, there is a GREEN wire on the far outside. You will need to cut this wire loose from the ignition switch connector. Attach this GREEN wire to either wire of the “ENGINE START” push-button pigtail; it does not matter which one.
Note: For this connection, you may use the supplied Quick Disconnect Heat-Shrink Terminals, but for best results, it is recommended that you solder this connection and Heat-Shrink or tape the exposed splice.
Note: Failing to cut this GREEN wire from the connector, will still permit the vehicle to be started with the key.
On the opposite end of the GREEN wire in the ignition switch connector, there is a WHITE wire on the far outside. You will need to SPLICE into this wire with the remaining wire coming from the “ENGINE START” push-button pigtail. DO NOT CUT THIS WHITE WIRE!!!
Note: You may use the supplied Crimp-Lock connector, but for best results, it is recommended to solder this connection and Heat-Shrink or tape the exposed splice.
I hope this is what you need and it helps.

Nothing beats the Ford Workshop Manual
Just wire it constant on if you have a manual tranny
and the clutch becomes the 'starter button'...
Real nifty mod.
Get in.
Turn key to run.
Depress clutch.
Engine starts hands free....
PCM knows engine is running and
ignores the start requests when shifting gears.
