hi, I am not sure if this has to do with car audio but I have a federal PA300 siren with 100w speaker. I was wondering how I should wire this into my car. I am skeptical if it will take too much from my alternator. I already successfully installed a new sterio, xm radio reciver and 4 DC outlets, and 1 spinning light. I dont plant to use it much just in emergencies sine i am an emergency medical technician. i have a 90 mitsubishi mirage. thanks for any input

Is the system 12V? If it is, then as far as wiring it into the vehicle, there should just be a power, constant or switched which ever you prefer, and a ground. Then just run the wiring for the speaker. Also you should make sure the speaker is water proof.
