Where to hide alarm components?

Not to be argumentative auex, but there are several relays in your vehicle that can go bad and leave you stranded. Not the least of which is the starter kill relay which we use every day (crimestopper and some others offer normally open starter kill options). I do agree that it is not usually a good idea, because if it fails while you are driving it can be dangerous. I would never suggest to a customer such a setup, unless they specifically requested it. I think Clifford uses multiple disable zones on some of their alarms for that kind of thing. They can also be useful to disable a stolen vehicle via telematics systems like gps2000, or via a carjack setup. Obviously not recommended by most alarm manufacturers. bzzzzttttt
