Can you draw up a pic and post it of how it could be wired in for us dummies? [8D]
Sheesh... Sorry... mythbusters was on!

I know this is a terrible drawing and a crappy pic, but it should illustrate the point...

Okay, that turned out even chittier than I thought...

I do not have a scanner at home, nor do I have AutoCAD here. I can do either from the office...

Let me see if I can figure out another way to get a better image.

I think on the 08 bikes the alarm is wired into the horn as well as the lights. If so, a comparison of the wiring diagram for an 08 bike compared to an earlier model might offer a useful answer.I dont know where you would find such wiring diagrams however.

If you have a digital camera take a picture of your diagram.

Just a quick update...

I am working on getting the drawing in a decent format.

Also, I think that I may need to add a diode to keep voltage from back feeding into the TSSM module.
Total cost just went up to $16!

i got the alarm with the pager option. it was plug and play. i can't see your schematic that well, but what will happen to the alarm circuitry when you use the horn? any chance it may fry?
