I know how to hook these up to a car with an aftermarket alarm. But I am trying to put them on a car that has a factory alarm. I need to find a wire that produces a constant negative output when the OEM alarm is armed. Does anyone know where I can find this kind of negative wire on a 2002 Cadillac Escalade?

There would be several ways.  Tap the signal from the OEM alarm, or just flash them whenever the car is off.  LEDs are a detterant, so having them flash even if the alarm isn't armed isn't a bad idea.
