sounds like you were only given the valet key. contact the seller and request the actual key. once you lock the car you should see a red light on top of the dash and in the front of the radio blinking. this tells you the alarm is active.

If so, is it safe to assume that there are wires in there waiting to be hooked up to speakers?

i believe you would need to run the wires yourself, but they're usually sent with the speaker kit. i know my box has the panel speakers but no rear speakers. the "holes" for the rear speakers are behind the seats in the compartment area under the loops / wind screens. here's a link to pelican's site on how to install the speakers.

not sure on this one, but i believe the way the top folds for the plastic vs glass would mean it would not fold down correctly. someone correct me on this if i'm wrong. the tops from GAHH seem to be very well regarded and the cost isn't too bad - $1200-1500 for the top and installation labor. if there's nothing wrong with your plastic my opinion would be to wait until it breaks / tears and replace it then.

it's possible, but you'll have to disassemble the entire cluster, which just means once you put it back together something won't work right. the lights are soldered on.
