Default Found another surprise in the jeep... does anyone else have a siren?

First it was a hole in the airbox behind the glove compartment that was obviously used for drugs/money and now this. I actually noticed the siren a few weeks ago but I was doing a seafoam treatment today and decided to take some pictures. It's obviously not stock or professionally done because they just drilled a crappy hole through the firewall for the wire to the siren... I have no idea where the wire goes either. Maybe police confiscated it at one point? It kind of pisses me off that I bought this from a dealership that could have paid $quat for it at a police auction... anyway wtf

I have one of those. there a bit to fast sounding to be a siren, but would be great for pranks like hooking it up to a friends brakelights or something like that.

It's for a car alarm/security system that's probably been disconnected or torn out.
