yup

i need that key. i dont have it and the previous owner that had the alarm installed doesnt have it either.

i basically cant get any work done to the car if it involves disconnecting the battery (which is bloody inconvenient)

unplugging the siren causes it to go off (presumably using its backup battery) and i would entertain the pillow idea if i knew it would eventually turn off.

ive read somewhere that letting it run out (the siren) isnt a good idea as i might not be able to start the car again.

i will try manual mode in a sec.
