Disconnecting Alarm

Disconnecting Alarm
I know someone said you disconnect the black box under the stereo, but I dunno. There's a small black box that sits on top of a silver box. Each has 2 or 3 harnesses coming into it, and I don't want to disconnect any of it until I'm sure of what I'm doing.
Anyone know exactly what box and what harness I need to disconnect?

Because I will be getting an aftermarket one in the next few days
I understand the reluctance of people telling me how to do it for security reasons, but cans omeone at least tell me what exactly will set off the alarm?
Basically, I didn't even know I had one until the other day when it started going off for no apparant reason. I was messing with some stuff while the battery was disconnected, and when I reconnected it, it went off. I would at least like to know what I may have done to set it off.

When you lock the doors with either the remote,key in door or lock switch on the door it sets the factory 'alarm'. If you open the trunk,door(s) or hood it will set it off. There is absolutely no need to locate/remove it for a new alarm.

Im confused: So the new one you are putting in is just an alarm without keyless entry? Even those come with remotes. What is the point of putting it in...as Don said our factory alarm is good enough that all you are basically doing is adding a shock sensor and a starter kill...and you have a 99 so you have a chip in your key anyway. Might as well save your money for a better alarm with a lot more features.

Ahh so you lost the factory remote? I gotcha.
Either way, you dont need to disconnect the factory alarm...when the new one goes in they should hook up the factory arm and factory disarm and make it all work
