The one on the left is the factory immobiliser and the other is the aftermarket alarm. the alarm is hooked up to the factory immobiliser so when i lock the doors the alarm arms at the same time. i didn't want one drilled in to the dash like most others and wanted it to blend in so i came up with that.
