Alarm sounds

I was wondering if any of you have upgraded the horn on thee HHRs or added some type of other device to change the arming beep when you lock your car or when the alarm goes off. Currently Fiji has a sad little halfa honk when you arm it and when the alarm goes off its like the car is clearing its throat and saying...."uuumm excuse me, i'm sorry to bother you but I think someone is tring to steal me" and I want it to say
"HEY GET OUT HERE AND BEAT THE HELL OUTTA THIS LITTLE PUNK WHO IS TRYING TO TAKE MY DVD HEADRESTS"

Any Ideas besides going with a completly aftermarket setup. I'd like to seperate the horn from the alarm and add a siren of somesort or that cool soft tone beep that alot of these new high end cars have.

did you have any problems with blowing fuses? Does it sound a bit stronger when the alarm is set or goes off? Thanks for the reply

Fuse

yes i did pop a couple fuse's i think the original was a 15 and i went up to a 25 before it stoped poping,as far as the alarm sounding the little compresser has to move a couple times before you get any sound but then look out its loud.just using it around town there are no problems , in the winter it needs to be warm or it takes a while for it to toot when you hit the lock on your key fob. other than that im happy with it
