Default Where did you guys put your LED for your alarm?

I finally have time to get my alarm put in tomorrow and I was wondering where you guys have put your LED's. Please let me know. Thanks! Also do you guys know if you can use the old school clifford LED's on the new DEI alarms?

It's a Catch-22 situation. If you hide the LED, people don't know that it's got an alarm and might think it's easy to steal. If you have the LED in plain view, especially when it's blinking, it might have the unintended effect of drawing extra attention to your car. Some people might even find it a challenge to break into your car because it has an alarm. ^^;

I have mine in the corner of the vent, above the radio. its kinda hidden. but at night its slightly visible. so it works both ways.

hidden and visible.
