CORRECT. Sorry to be long winded,... just making sure its clear what I did.

UPDATE!!: I do have one small issue that I'm currently resolving with my setup. First few days no issues whatsoever. Now, I have my "hood open" warning going off intermittently for about 1-2 sec. It seems to be going off only when the car starts to move from a stand-still and the Motion Sensor triggers a motion. Since it is hooked into the hood alarm sensor I think the car is beling fooled into thinking the hood is open. The alarm MUST have a separate "on/off" switch since I would think the alarm would go off while I'm driving if it didn't. I am currently working on the issue and seeing if I can rewire the sensor closer to the siren and bypass this issue (so the trigger is isolated to the alarm and not the "hood open" sensor as well).

I will update as soon as I get a resolution or have more information.

ANY IDEAS and INPUT IS APPRECIATED.
