    Kings, 275/70/17, a few custom items, lots of Meso mods.
    If they are going to put something like that on, why not do a professional job and not just screw it to the dash like that..o_O..at least hide it a little better...:rant:

    I saw one just exactly like that on a Nissan Frontier today in the exact same spot. So, definately not factory Toyota alarm. I didn't have much time to check it out, but I saw a bunch of T taps under the dash.

    No, That is not Factory. It is some dealer installed crap. As said above follow the wires and disconnect it. Even if it does work it looks like crap.
