    license plate alarm?

    So, i just noticed a keyhole on the mounting frame of my license plate. I had to take it apart to see what was inside since i don't have the key. I think it is an alarm but it doesn't work. I replaced the batteries but nothing happened. Could this be true? Anyone ever heard of these?

    First i've heard of them, but there's others chattering away on other forums about them.

    Only thing that's close I've found is a reversing alarm

    [edit]oh and this is about all i've found. looks like they used to be a fad a few years ago, but i'll take a wild guess that they never caught on[/edit]

      I put one on my T500 Titan in 1973. Not a deterrent, but at least it makes a sound when disturbed. I would not purchase another one, personally.

          Probably wouldn't surprise you to learn that there IS a reversing alarm available for a GoldWing.

          There are electrical circuits that become active when Reverse is engaged, allowing you to connect back-up lights and/or an alarm.
