Default Turbo timer hardwire instead of plug n play

Has anyone just wired their turbo timer straight in? Ptuning is backed up a month for their plug n play ignition harness and really don't wait to wait/rely on them to have them in.

If you go to the scion tech section of the site, you can find all the necessary wiring diagrams to do this. Unfortunately, i don't have a picture, i was using an hks turbo timer.
