i think you'll find a good few inches of slack wire if you pull it up from the top, soldering would be best though.. but whichever way you connect, wrap it in plenty of insulating tape. dont want water dripping down your window onto the wires and buggering up your alarm.

I got one of these and they look great. Suprised how many people come up and ask about it. I didn't put mine in. I gave it to the guy who was putting in my clifford to do as he'd be removing panels. What he did say though is that it only works one way. So check your wires before you permenatly attach them. if it doesn't work one way, switch the wires and try it the other. I was going to run a wire over to do my passenger door too but not sure now. With the clifford in there is 3 flashing blue lights and looks like a disco as it is, so might just leave the passenger door.

If A equals success, then the formula is: A = X + Y + Z, X is work. Y is play. Z is keep your mouth shut.
