Hey guys,
finally gettin all my audio/alarm installed tomorrow,
now i have a question,
where did you all put the LED alarm indicator in the interior?
I dont really wanna drill in my dash,
so im looking for ideas/inspiration pics/comments please.
my idea so far was on top of the stearing column?
TIA!

 

bump before tomorrow comes

 

I put mine on the tiny square on the top of the dash just behind the windshield. It is kind of a pain just for the LED but the placement is awesome. It can be seen from anywhere around the car.

You will have to pull the radio and the plastic piece with the clock/hazard switch. Once that is out of the way, use a small pic tool and remove that square piece on the top of the dash, drill and mount the led and then just carefully snake the wires back to the brain.

 

that sounds worth it, most of the dash will be out anyway cause the orbital 2din is getting installed too. great idea man...

any others?

 

Been wondering this myself. Hoping to do the alarm next month.

 

anymore good ideas?

 

I have mine where the mirror switch is supposed to go, look by the steering wheel up close, only really works for an rs lol

 

I put mine beside the ACD switch.

 

Mine is flush mounted on the drivers A pillar near the windshield.

 

Into my gauge bezel that's replacing my radio (I made my own bezel for 2 gauges). Lights up pretty nice at night

 

kinda ghetto, but you could squish it between the drivers a pillar and dash. used to do that when customers didnt want any holes drilled. as close to the windshield as possible as well.

 

The benifit of putting it where I said is that if need be, it is like a 2 dollar part to swap back in place if you remove the alarm. No one will ever now.

 

Here's mine. I think drilling will result in the cleanest install.

 

since I did the install myself, I put red leds on the base of the right and left A pillars and the blue led on the square piece sitting in the middle of the dash. since the paging system has also a blue led, that makes it 4 leds in front

 

BEST place is up on the center of the dash by the vents close to the windshield. This is the best place IMO because it is centered and can be seen from all angles. Also...the light is reflected right off the windshield and into the cabin of your car enhancing the light. Its just a little square part and can be poped off with a pick tool.. drill a little hole for the LED and wala! plus you wont even see it while driving.
