BINGO! dont know why they put it in the glove box...should be under the dash...

if its the Valet kill...then thats a pretty dumb spot to install it...what if you lock your glove box, to keep the trunk locked from the valet? err?

Not to mention, you have an aftermarket self tapping screw in the pic too!

Well anyway, they did not do a good job. I question why a self tapping screw was needed to support the glove box. I hope they didnt break any clips.
Ouch.... they probably did... Why in the world would you add an after market alarm anyway??? I would never trust some car stereo shop or car alarm shop monkey with my brand new lexus!
