MOUNTING SYSTEM COMPONENTS
The Control Module is “the brain” of the system and therefore must be
installed in a secure location under the dash.
NEVER install the Control
Module in the engine compartment or near any source of heat or moisture!
NEVER place the Control Module near moving parts or in a location where
it can vibrate or move around excessively.
IMPORTANT: When considering an appropriate mounting loca-
tion, keep in mind that most thieves hot-wire vehicles by removing
the plastic panel just under the steering column.
Locations above or behind the glove box, behind the radio or high up under
the dash (such as above the fuse box) are all good mounting places. Howev-
er, you may need to extend wires if your chosen location is too far from the
steering column.
If you extend wires, always use the same or larger gauge
wire! Solder all large gauge wire connections and cover with electrical tape
or heat shrink tubing and/or corrugate tube.

The Status LED is used as a visual theft deterrent when the system is
armed. It also is used to alert the user if the siren went off in their ab-
sence.
Ask the vehicle owner where the Status LED should be placed. If they
have no particular preference, suggest a location near the door window on
the driver’s side where it can be easily seen (e.g., on a
switch blank
). Use

will need to drill holes and use self-tapping screws. Mount in a place that
will not be splashed excessively with water!
