Trying to install bulldog security car alarm?
The directions are essentially just saying to install it to a piece of metal on your car. The firewall is at the top of the picture, its the wall separating the engine compartment from the passenger cab. The metal fenders are at the left and right of the picture, its the metal that surrounds the front tire areas. A plate, is simply a piece of metal. I assume that the directions are talking about the siren part of alarm, because the actual control unit of the alarm you DO NOT want to install in the engine bay. Most of them aren't water proof, so its recommended to install them in the glove-box area underneath your dash, then run the wires through the firewall. It would also pose as a security threat to install the control unit in the engine bay, as it'd be easier to access the engine compartment and clip the alarm wires. If you have any more questions, feel free to message me. Hope this helps!
bull dog is straight forward, as the previous poster stated they are not the best choice. Personally I have code alarm in my vehicles as they seam to be a good quality unit. Design tech puts out good quality units as well. I would stay away from bulldog.As the old saying goes, You get what you pay for
