Use two diodes and put one to the right and the other to the left hazzard wires if your alarm does not have dual park light out puts.

yep most german vehicles are this way because if you are in a situation that your vehicle is broken down you can turn on the hazard lights on the side of the vehicle closest to the road and your battery lasts twice as long. gosh i love german engineering. at least there is a method to their madness. death to GM lol (i'm not kidding).
