You connect it to the aftermarket car alarm trigger wire. Blue to the trigger wire if you have more than on sensor connected to the alarms trigger wire you diode isolate each sensor with the band towards the alarm module, red to fused +12v, black to ground.

The sensor is meant to be an add-on to aftermarket alarm modules that have a connection for sensors. Factory alarms aren't designed to be upgraded with additional sensors. That's why you'll see threads on this forum of people installing an aftermarket security system (with extra sensors) to a vehicle that is already equipped with a factory alarm.

You could try to connect to one of the door triggers on the factory alarm but that's opening a technical can of worms and Catback explains the reasons why not much better, see above.

Amateurs assume, don't test and have problems; pros test first. I am not a free install service.
Read the installation manual, do a search here or online for your vehicle wiring before posting.
