97 Ford Ranger, I am adding 2 extra Super sirens along with the aftermarket siren that came with the alarm I installed previously.  It shows a 3 amp circuit built into the module.  I wasn't sure if I should just add another power source and the ground and control side of the module would be ok, or if I need to run both a new ground and power wire or relay etc... Any Ideas would be sweettttt...

I suggest adding a relay to your siren output (FUSED!) to handle all 3 sirens.

18 guage (power and ground) to each siren should handle the load just fine.

As added protection, I would fuse each siren individually, so if  "Mr. Criminal" tries to short out one siren, the other 2 will still work.

Good luck!
