followed the speaker wires but couldn't find any points to disconnect it without cutting the wires.
however might be able to cram foam into the speaker so it's less loud lol.
after you disconnect the battery the immobilizer remote doesn't seem to be able to turn off the alarm. pretty annoying

It might have a backup battery source in it.

definitely has a backup battery, it's nowhere near as loud as the normal one then.
guess i'll play some cold chisel to my car then
