ALARM Question

Hey guys, quick question, I was told by someone that when you get an alarm there are some small "horns" I guess that you can put in the inside of our car that make a hig pitch noise when your alarm goes off, and you can hide them. I gues they are like the size of a battery or something, I dont know. does anyone know anything about this or what they are called?

They are called mini piezo sirens. Some people wire them up in the cabin to make it unbearable to be in the car when the alarm is going off. You can get them on Ebay for under $10/ea

It's fairly uncomfortable to sit in the car when a few piezos are going off, yes. Its not impossible, but if you have sensitive ears, it hurts. Def a good "honest thief" deterrent.
