TOOLS REQUIRED
This is a general list of tools required to complete the installation of this security system in most vehicles. Some
vehicles may require additional tools.
Siren
Some things to remember when mounting the siren:
Keep it away from heat sources. Radiators, exhaust manifolds, turbochargers, and heat shields are all
things to avoid.
Mount it where a thief cannot easily disconnect it, whether the hood is open or shut. Both the siren and
it’s wires should be difficult to find. This usually involves disguising the wire to look like a factory har-
ness.
We recommend against grounding the siren to it’s
mounting screws. Instead, we recommend running both
the red and black wires into the passenger compart-
ment and grounding to one common point for all
devices. After all, both wires are the same length and
come already bonded together. Whenever possible,
conceal your wires in the factory harnesses or in the
same style loom as the factory.
When possible, put the siren on the same side of the
vehicle as the control module, where it’s wires will reach
the control module’s wires without extending them.
Always run the wires through the center of a grommet,
never through bare metal!
Point the siren down so water does not collect in it.
