shouldn't the shock sensor be placed on a solid surface? instead of a wobbly one? so it can sense even slight vibrations? I talked to ron this morning about it. I first thought it should be placed on a solid surface too but read your instruction and it says on a wobbly place, but my shock sensor isn't picking up some vibrations and I'm just wondering. I'm going to mount it on like the firewall this afternoon and see how it goes.

 

I talked to an alarm install place as well when I bought the sensor. They said to MAKE SURE I install it onto a WOBBLY surface. Solid surfaces take harder hits to trip the alarm. Wobbly surfaces, such as a bunch of wires tied together near the fuse panel work perfect for this.

This is also where every after market alarm sensor I've ever had has been mounted.

My sensor is on the clump of wires near the fuse panel with the sensitivity almost all the way up. The alarm goes off if I lift and drop the winshield wiper from about 5 inches. I'd say that location works PERFECT.

 

Did you guys get the solid state fully electronic sensors? I found one online really cheap. MY buddy who used to be an alarm/stereo install guy recommended it to me; made by a company called "Bulldog". It's goiing on next week when I get back from my vacation.

Wobly surface is what he said as well. Otherwise, the sensor won't be able to detect what it needs to.

 

I bought an AudioVox electronic sensor.

 

I mounted the shock sensor on one of those black tubes near the central panel, and it's not working too well. I have the sensitivity all the way up, but still... I'll try difference locations.
