Depends on what the current draw for the LED strip is.

It will work if you use a relay and the GWA, [ground when armed] lead from the alarm, [and if LED strip is "sequential"]. 94

how would i hook up the relay? and by sequential do u mean chasing? because this strip lights up one/2 at a time and chases across the strip

#30 and #85 of relay to 12V+ constant, [batt.], 3A-5A fuse, depending on draw.
#87 of relay to LED pos.(+) and ground LED to chassis, [any good ground point].
#86 of relay from GWA of alarm.

Your done. 94
