Well, the siren goes under the hood (facing down) usually near the firewall, the main unit goes high under the dash (out of the way of the pedals at least), the shock sensor usually is tie-wrapped to the steering column.

As for where to "tap" the wire, if you mean "tape" then what I do is make all my connections, then take the wiring harness and wrap all the wires in a overlapping spiral wrap of electrical tape (much like the factory harnesses). Then I tie-wrap the bundles harness to another factory harness nearby, or to some other structural piece (brackets, etc).

If you did mean "tap" then I would make your connections where it makes sense, e.g. easy to reach and within reach of the length of the harness based on position of the main unit.

Also i would recommend doin a search on your car "Honda Accord" in this forum or even more specific and look for post with your wiring harness diagram...so u can find out what wires your alarm will be "tapped" into on your car. hope this helps
