Yea, so do you think the sensor being placed there would be ok? I dont have any other way to protect the lid itself other than putting in a pin switch which I will not do.

Why no pin switch they aren't that bad. But you could still use the tilt sensor it shouldn't be a problem i've never personally done it though

With the way the trunk in, I would have to mount the pin switch on a bracket and mount the bracket somewhere. It would just be a pain in the butt. Atleast with the tilt sensor, I can protect 2 areas with 1 sensor. I mean yea I could put in a pin switch, but I already ordered the tilt sensor so it will be installed either way. So my choices are to put in pin switch and mount tilt sensor in the cab, or forget the pin switch and mount tilt in trunk. Plus I dont know of someone else that has tried this before. Maybe i will start a trend  lol

well the way i would do it is use the domelight to watch the doors, using trunk light and diode isolate them with the door trigger then add the additional tilt sensor inside the cabin under dash on a nice leveled surface.

I already tried tapping into the trunk light. I was told to tap into the orange black wire running to the light. When I spliced into it, I lost light completly. And I think I have a mercury switch so I dont think it would work anyways. Just one question though.. What would be the difference between putting it in the cabin on a level surface and putting it on the underside of the trunk?

I got my tilt sensor yesterday and It says to run the power wire to the ground when armed output on the alarm. Now that wire is a negative ouput so would I just make a relay to convert polarity? Another thing.... Does anyone have or know anything about Skytec's microwave sensor? I got that yesterday also and I have no clue how to work it. It came with no instructions
