Z3 Alarm

The alarm control box is mounted behind the glovebox assembly - note I said
assembly. You have to pull the whole thing down, a real PITA. There is a
sensitivity adjustment that should be set to very low for the roadster. Is the
garbage truck is setting it off? I'd ask the dealer to check it out...ned.
