Conventional wisdom on the boards say that the alarm was no longer pre-wired on cars that were made after 03/09... I assume, that is the case on my car. Since it was built in may (05/09)...

However you now say that part of that 'change' in 03/09 was no rear tweeters. I believe you, however I popped off my cover rear speaker cover today and staring me in the face was a separate tweeter next to the 4" speaker.

Now you're making me wonder if my car may have indeed been somehow pre-wired for an alarm despite build date of 05/09... (I haven't checked, nor do I know how to check if its pre-wired other than just looking at the build date up to now)

PS--- now I'm starting to wonder if i'm mixing up markets here as you guys are all in the UK and are perhaps spec'd differently than our cars here in the US.

^^^Both of your know why there is some difference in cars / specs...
