Default where would i buy an extra sensor plug for autopage

Where would i buy an extra sensor plug for an autopage alarm. The alarm has an extra 4-wire port open for an extra sensor. But the two sensors I have don't have the right plug. Where would I get this from?

Or could I just splice into the shock sensor plug for all 3 sensors and have 3 different diodes?

Yes, that is the classic problem with all alarms that offer extra sensor ports. Even if you buy that brand's optional sensors, they not even come with a plug, ie DEI's tilt sensor. Fortunately, DEI and many other companies have been using the same plug connector for years in many of their products. So what I do is collect the plugs from the alarm's I replace at work, and I also troll the junkyards for them. If you're really desperate, you can even find them inside of some computers, or you could search through the wire plugs at Comp USA.

I have suggested to DEI that they include harnesses with the alarm, or sell them seperately. But DEI is too big of a monster to waste time on one suggestion, even if it's a hundred people with the same suggestion.

haha. It would probably be even harder for me to find a plug with autopage, since its not as common as DEI alarms. I ended up asking a local shop and paying them a few bucks for the plug
