Oh, I see there's 2 different p/n's for those:
the first is 905311, the second one is 508D.
Which one is recommended?

Ah, thanks. I'll order the 905311.
Just out of curiosity, why that one and not the 508D?

On cars with proximity sensors, are cats a problem setting off the alarms?
I frequently have cat's footprints up the windshield and we all know they love to sit on the hood of the car at night because it's warm.
Are cats a problem?
Thanks.

Because they are made for each other and you can adjust it via the remote control.

Mount in the roof lining with the embossed label facing into the car.

Anything that has mass can be a potential problem. The larger the mass the farther it can be detected, depending how the sensor was adjusted. Many times heavy rain can set it off. So cats may set it off if they climb on your car. When I usually install them, I install a toggle switch so it can be turned off, if necessary.
Edit: as howie said, you can always install it in the headliner. It helps but still has the potential of falsing.
