RE: [doc] Car Alarm...

Chris, I'd use an earth bus bar, this being connected using high(ish) current cable fed back to the negative battery terminal.
In my experience drilling holes in metalwork will provide a good earth return but is subject to corrosion on external exposed steelwork.
 
John, good 12v supply: Battery Positive terminal
        good 0v : battery negative terminal.

John, I have had problems with bad earths near the front of the car,
personally I'd drill a small hole in the Chassis, clean the paint off
around it and use that. Regarding power from the fans, if its had a
"fanzilla" fitted, they shut off a few seconds after the ignition is
turned off.

Subject: [doc] Car Alarm...

Dear all,

Can anyone tell me where to find the following wires
on a DeLorean (That is close to the front end of the
car as I want to install a car alarm there)?

A constant +12v
A good ground (That I don't need to drill holes to the
chassis)

And does the radiator cooling fan turns off when the
ignition is switched off? (i.e. does not run
independently of the ignition)

Cheers!
John Tien
