Have it installed at a shop by someone who knows what they're doing. Don't hire an electrician to do a technician's job. Electricians work inside walls, inside buildings. Usually when someone says "an electrician" it usually means their buddy who said they know what they're doing.

oh sorry what i ment by an "electrician" was a friend of mine who works at the Hyundai Shop who is a technician as you say. my bad haha.
And no im not replacing an old alarm but since its not a very common brand of security system he just wants as much info on it as he can other than the manual and install instructions that came with it.

I recently swapped my old nonworking Audiovox alarm with a HT-400C (from ebay) and it was very easy. The wiring diagram is all you need, and it's very clear. The only thing was that it had a wire which had to be connected to the brake circuit. The alarm needed this input (brake pedal depressed) only when programming new remotes, and I think for auto locking, so I just left it unconnected. Works fine (although doors don't auto-lock when driving - which I don't really care).
