Question installing a sense-o-shock

Hello,

I haven't even tried yet, but I noticed that there are no screws anywhere on the kick panel, rocker panel, amd under dash panel .

Has anyone installed one of the shock sensors on their RX yet? Can anyone write up some detailed instructions on how to remove the panels? Do I just tear it off by hand??

I guess I'm the only retard that ordered this thing.

Any ideas on how to remove the panels?

Sense-o-shock, or any shock sensor alarm, is useless nowadays. Thieves just pop the hood and cut the wires from the horn. Nobody is going to pay attention to a 5-second alarm. This is why most car makers don't install shock sensor alarms anymore.

Shock sensor alarm is notorious for false alarms. It can go off when a heavy truck go by, a kid bump into it, even Bazooka tube can set it off. I believe you can be fined big bucks in NYC for false car alarm.
