Default Security Siren, Where to Put? Also tips on the compustar...

Next weekend I'm finally installing my compustar alram (I'm helping install and my brother-in-law will be installing). Anyway, where are some good spots to put the siren in the tC?

Also if anyone has any tips on installing or heads up on the compustar 2WSS-AS let me know. Thanks!

not to familiar with the alarm... but the the tricky thing is finding the pass side door trigger.. i eneded up just going to the pass kick panel.. found it there... and ran a wire back to my alarm...

siren placement is always a tricky thing on this car... i peronally mounted mine in the dirvers side strut tower... its hidden pretty well... and works just fine... i have also done a few tc's where i put the siren on the firewall.. but its all up to you in the end...

- place alarm in cavity below radio to make it difficult to remove.
- run connections from steering column up as high as you can so they're not able to be cut easily.
- remove bumper skin and install siren behind it, running underhood wires low near the engine mounts.
- disconnect or relocate hood pop so theives cannot easily remove the car battery, silencing your alarm.
- mount shock and radar sensors in the center of the car for equal sensitivity corner to corner.
