I just won a new alarm in a radio contest, a prestige aps-15ch. I've almost got it installed (I have a 1999 Grand Am and the keyless entry is wacky), but was wondering what I should hook to the extra channel. I have one for the trunk, but I want the other little button to do something too. I was thinking having it honk the horn, but was curious what other people had done.

get a slave remote starter and use that other aux channel to start your car!
you can also get a window module or two, and make ur windows go up and down...

I like to use an extra channel for domelight supervision.. unless that already has a channel for that... I have only seen that alarm once.

Hmmm, good ideas. I think I might go with the dome light, I don't think I'd use the remote start much. I kinda want to hook something unique to it, something where I push the little button and people say "Huh, never saw that before"

Honk the horn, wipers, turn the radio on, window modules, the list can go on and on.

I ended up hooking it to the wiper water squirters. I have 'em aimed 90 degrees out from the car, so now I can squirt people who get too close.
