ok so i kinda of started a business installing radios with a buddy of mine well someone called asking about installing a car alarm in a 03 chevy impala and he said we would do it i have no clue how to put an alarm in can anyone help me out with this
I would never do your first alarm install to someone elses car, but do as you please.
Print a few wiring diagrams from websites like the12volt and bulldog security. You will need a few because the diagrams wont be completely correct. Make sure you organize wire. This is the most important part because if something messes up, its easy to go back and see.
Have plenty of 16-18 gauge speaker wire on hand (its great for car alarms.)
Loom up most of the main wiring on the alarm to make it look stock. This can throw a thief off.
Make sure all of your connections and crimps are correctly done. Loose connections can lead to problems.
Lastly, take your time. If your rush, your chances of messing something up is greater.
i wouldnt but i asnt there to answer the phone and he told them yes we would take the job now im head deep into something i didnt want to do i wanted to stick with audio
i would tell the guy that your employee was ill-informed and that you do not do car alarm installs. i am willing to bet he would be much happier with the truth than having his car there all day and you somehow screwin up the wiring or the actual alarm itself.
