Installing a Shock Sensor

First of all YES, I did do a search and found NOVAwhiteTypeS install DYI. The only thing is that the link is dead.

Can anyone help me out, or have instructions themselves? I just picked up a shock sensor (DEI) when I was in the states for Cedar park.

the factory alarm only goes off when armed and a door is opened. if someone smashes the window and climbs in( in know from experience), nothing happens. a shock sensor modded into the factory alarm will go off with impact as well as door entry. plus u can use the factory equipment like the fob.
