I have a Viper 300+ alarm in a 94 Honda Prelude. 1)Which wires would I need to tap to get these to work(backup battery, piezo, range antenna)? 2)Would I need to wire a relay for the Piezo siren? 3)I'm also in the process of relocating my alarm brain to mount under the drivers seat. I've notice that I'm lacking about 2 ft of wire from the alarm brain, would I be able to extend the wires without adversly affecting the brain? 4)Ever since I went to have a Professional add a trunk selenoid to my car, the alarm will not go off if the trunk is open. How would I rewire so that my trunk will sound the alarm if opened? jake

1. Battery would require disconnecting power to the alarm and wiring the power feed of the BUB to where the alarm was powered at and conecting the output from the BUB to alarm's power wire, there are also other wires that need to be hooked up such as ground and possibly a trigger wire( if main power dies then the alarm is triggered). Piezo would just tie into the siren output/ brown wire. Ant. just plugs into the alarm on the inside.
2. You would only need to wire a relay if you have more then one siren( the output from the alarm is capable of running two sirens).
3. Just extend the wires and you should be fine.
4. You would just hook the trunk's pin wire to the blue wire ( negative instant trigger) of the alarm.

1. I have a 300+ and all my sockets on the brain are being used. I don't have an auxillary socket like the 300esp has. My guess is that I would have to splice into a couple of wires, but which Going to install this weekend, just needed a primer, thanks.

The antenna will plug into a port on the inside of the alarm so you have to pull it apart to plug it in. You have a blue wire on the main harness. What wires do you think you would have to splice into?

Where would I connect the antenna? auex]1 wrote:

Figured it out for the antenna- it's just the wire coming from the module. Connect inside wire to the alarm wire and grounding the outside wire if you were to hard wire it. Looking at one of your older posts about BUBS, I did not cut the original power wire going to the alarm. I instead mistakenly connected both the red and gray wire to the alarm power wire. I guess that was why I was able to use the accessories on the car. I'm going to rewire it correctly. Would the way I wired the BUB cause my shock sensor not to work? On the 300+ the shock snesor is on the alarm module. I was shaking the module and the sensor will not go off.

Yep - the way I wired the BUB disabled my shock sensor somehow.
