Sadly, I think you need to replace and start again. Wouldn't think there was much to salvage.

In my humble opinion I would suggest that when the alarm is replaced, you locate it under the dash where the "originals" and replacements are normally found.

Putting anything additional, especially electronic items in the engine bay, is a real no-no. Sirens usually go in front of the radiator, pointing downwards.

Cheer up, it could have been worse !!
