Can anyone tell me if the over head light fade will set off the alarm in a Ford Focus? I'm going to be installing a APS-785 with the door triggers, and I 'm not sure if when I arm the system the fading light will trigger the alarm?

Thanks: Jason

Yes it will. If there is an option on the alarm to set the delayed arming on this unit, use it.
