Has anyone hooked up a musical horn/siren to their aux channel of their car alarm?

Basically, this kid wants a musical horn to play a tune, but wants it to work from his Viper 791xv remote.

He showed me This

it uses it own remote, and there is no way to get the alarm remote to trigger it.

(i opened it, and i only saw resistors, capacitors, diodes. nothing resembling a relay,

so i cant run a wire into the siren itself to trigger it)

He does not like to carry around to big bulk remotes.

the tune that the siren above play is the like icecream-man tune. it runs off 12v and uses a remote to turn on/off the song.

I would think you could run the Aux wire from your Remote Starter to a relay, then relay to musical horn. Depends on the Aux wire if it's - or + pulse to cofigure the relay. Check this site for hooking up relays, should help. Good luck.

i know how to wire a realy, like i said

the musical horn from above is triggered from a remote

and there is no way i can initiate the horn unless i use the remote

i want to know if there is a horn out there similar to this, but uses car alarm aux channel.

(It is immpossible to use the horn the kid brought)

take apart the remote from the musical siren and wire up a relay to trigger the on off button in the remote, tape it all up and throw it under the dash.

If he can work within a 5-second-per-channel limitation, tell him to pick up a DEI 516L.

I have one wired up to my 6500ESP, and it uses the GWA's wire to activate the three programmable triger zones.

I have one channel programmed to my 508d Proximity, one to my remote start sequence, and one to the Ch. 4 output of my remote.

The input of the 516L's audio input is a 1/8" mono phono input. I was able to run a wire from a laptop to the input of the 516 and program, directly, anything I wanted as long as it was 5 seconds or less. Keep the volume levels LOW comming out of the laptop if you're going to go this route, and you'll want to bench test this several times to get the output as clean as possible.

Good luck.
