Hope this is the correct section. Picked up an '02 172 on monday, checking a few things out today and wondered what this is, it's mounted just above the battery. Excuse my noobness if it's really obvious.

It will be part of an aftermarket alarm system.

Thanks for the quick replies, need to set my alarm off now to see it works, any quick easy way to do this without damaging the car

Lock yourself in and open the door handle / try and start it whilst locked.

Will do, I know it seems like an obvious question but never set off a car alarm before, deliberate or otherwise!

Shut all doors, lock it and throw a brick through the window







please DON'T do this! either lock yourself in as said above or put window down lock doors and reach in from outside of car and try open doors, should set it off
