    Has anyone got info on how to make the outside beeper (which sounds just like the inside reverse beeper) sound off when in reverse?

    actually I think there is *some* kind of beeper under the hood as
    part of the SKS warning system, but I don't recall exactly where.
    Presumably if such a thing is there, a mod could send it signal
    from the reverse output -- not that it does a lot of good because
    it's near the FRONT of the car, but whatever..

    The link will not download. Says file is damaged and cannot be repaired?

    The link/document above is damaged, the real PDF is a little over 1 MB to download. You can get the original from the Knowledge Base. It includes instructions on how to turn off the inside beeps and wire in a buzzer that can be heard outside the car. With Pictures!

    Thanks for letting me know. I've edited it to link to the PDF in the Knowledge base. That one works. (And thanks Bill for doing that.)
