Nice.

What someone has done, in the shittiest way possible, is to upgrade to a 96-98 main switch.

The 1995 main switch uses an external amplifier (one of the plugs left hanging) and switches through it, the 96-98 switch is all internal. 95 models usually have issues with the AUTO button breaking a spring and staying locked down, burning up the amp or motor. All they have done is bypassed the amp and connected the 96-98 plug to the harness. They could have just as easily swapped the entire door harness (it plugs right into the dash harness) but since most 96 models did not have the OE security you're left with adding in or repinning the harness for the wiring needed to arm/disarm the alarm and for the tamper switch in the key cylinder.

I would try and track down a clean 96-98 driver side door harness, complete, and swap it in. You can depin the security wiring from your 95 harness and add it. Alternatively you can find a clean 95 harness and main switch and plug it right in too.

Or lastly, DL a 96-98 FSM and understand the differences in the harnesses, you can then repair and correctly wire what you have and remove the excess clutter.
