Started my alarm install

Hey whats up guys,
I started installing my alarm yesterday.Its a clifford avantguard 5.Its alittle bit of a pain in the ass,but its not bad.It has all the bells and whistles:remote start,black jax,and windows up and down.Im not sure if im gonna install the window modual though,i dont feel like going inside the door panels.I wanted it to be outta sight,so i installed it under the pass side seat.Most of it is done,i just gotta run the wires for the tach and mount the siren and bypass the theft lock for the remote start.Most of the wires for the alarm can be found on the pass side of the fuse box.The only thing you need is a resistor for the door locks 2 diodes for the dome light.I have 2 blue leds for the alarm that i mounted inside the gauge cluster so it shines the speedo and tach gauge at night.Im gonna see if i can get a pic of that when it gets darker out.Anyways on with the pics.

Yeah,its a pain in the ass.Id rather do it this way cause its alot neater.Theres not that much room under the dash for this alarm.I coulda fit it under the dash,but there would be wires all over the place and it will look like a mess.Its gonna take me a good 2 or 3 days to get it finished.Im taking my time and running the wires nice and neat with the factory harnesses.

good luck man ...that looks hard and how long did that take you to take all that off?
****,taking all that stuff apart was the easy part.I had everything out in like 15 minutes.

I mounted it on the side of the fender near the windshield washer bottle.I was gonna take the headlight out and mount it either behind there or mount it behind the grill.I just mounted near the washer bottle cause i didnt feel like taking any more **** apart,lol.
