help with programming 95 keyless remote

So I did some searching and found a thread with these instructions:

To reprogram your keyless entry system for a new key fob:
1) Turn ignition to OFF.
2) Ground pin 1 of the Data Link Connector (black 16-pin connector under dash driver's side). Pin 4 of this connector is a ground, so placing a jumper wire between pins 1 & 4 will accomplish this. Grounding pin 1 tells the system you are getting ready to reprogram it.
3) Close all the doors.
4) Turn the key to ACC, then back to OFF. The power locks will lock/unlock. The system is now ready to be programmed.
5) Press a button on your key fob.
6) If you have two key fobs, press a button on the second fob within 1 minute of pressing a button on the first one. Both must be programmed at the same time. If you only have one remote, press a button on it 2 more times to signal that you only have one.
7) The doors will lock/unlock to signal that the codes were received.
8) Remove the connection between pins 1 & 4.

Does this apply to a 1995 eclipse as well? I ask because 95s are not supposed to have an OBD II connector (I'm assuming that's what the data link connector is). However, the guy at autozone said that mine did. Either way, is there an easier way to program this remote.

thanks in advance

Our 95s do have OBDII. It'll be right under the dash by your right leg. Theres an ODBI port also down there IIRC.

what do I ground the pins with. I don't want to short out my electrical system. Thanks in advance.

Use a paper clip. Bend it out and make it form a "U" shape. Insert 1 end into slot 1, and 1 end into slot 4.
