Live wire with alarm system

Does anyone know of any wires that become live when the alarm goes off on a 2011 pro-4x. I'm talking about the oem alarm also. I know that the lights flash and horn honks but I'm looking for a constant power source when the alarm goes off then turns back off when the alarm stops. Just got a crazy itch in my brain I want to settle.

Thanks,
Metzican

To clarify, are you looking for something that ONLY has power when the alarm is triggered or would it be okay if it is also live at other times?

It can be setup either way. Where it only has power when the alarm is triggered or if it only has power if the alarm is triggered or vehicle is running.

I'll see if I can look at schematics and figure something out. Do the interior lights come on when the alarm is triggered? If so, would it be a problem using that as your power source? If it wasn't so late I'd go set mine off to see what else happens other than the horn and flashing lights. I've done it by accident a couple of times and I was thinking the interior lights came on but I might be thinking of another car. It could also be different between 1'st and 2'nd gen.

^^ One of the reason why I am asking is I suck at reading electrial diagrams that are not simple. The second is I'm a few hundred miles away from my vehicle right now so I can't test and see what does what yet. I basicaly just need somthing to run a relay off of and I will be set. I'm trying to get this all figured out before I go back home and work on this project.

This is just a guess but wouldn't the wire that triggers the alarm relay be hot at that time and turn off when the alarm is not on? Unless you're asking the location and which wire it is, then never mind.

This might work. I will have to track it down. Hopefully it stays hot the whole time the alarm is going off.

By the way my neighbors are going to hate me. Trying to find a hot wire for when a car alarm goes off. Using trial by error method. Lets hope the cops show up.

go ahead, But I no longer need it unless I want to hook it up to an air horn valve. My DVR system takes to long to boat up to do anything about it.
