Default Where is the factory chirp siren ?(Stock Alarm)

I'm trying to locate the Factory chirp siren from the alarm. The chrip noise you hear when you lock and unlock the car and pop the trunk. i can hear it under the hood but i cannot see where it is at??

There are two noise making devices on the factory alarm on my 95.

The one on the shock tower is the horn for the alarm, should it be triggered. The pleasing "chirp" you hear is located in the drivers wheel well as earlier stated. Once again this is on a 95
