ok i read on here a while back about a guy that had 2 home security sirens in his car. i was gonna just uy 3 more DEI sirens and hook it up to my 791xv, but i think instead i want to get 1 home security siren and just take out my DEI siren i have now. would this be easy to install? can i just replace the siren and hook up the new one to the wires that were hooked to the old one? and where is a good place to get a home siren at? i found one, i might buy this tonite. https://www.partsexpress.com/pe/showdetl.cfm?&DID=7&Partnumber=260-060

ps- it has to be 12V right? and if i need any extra parts to hook that up, please let me know. thanks to anyone who replies;)

I've done some "bull horn" siren installations before and I've always used a relay to power the siren. You may have to do that with that siren.
