there is an alarm wire that connects to the factory radio casing that is causing this. What you want to do is remove the radio console. Pop out the two switch panels (where the cigarette lighter and door lock switches are) there are then 4 torx screws along the corners, remove those) then depending how the installer installed your alpine the should be 2 more torx next to the radio that connects to the metal radio bracket. Once those are removed you should be able to pull it out slowly, you only need to pull it out enough to see on the driver side of the radio, there is a (brown or black wire) that has a female plug that plugs in the side of the radio (it does not actually plug into the radio but more on to the mounting plate/plastic piece) if this wire was cut or not plugged in then this will make your alrm think that someone ripped you radio out and causing the false trigger. If a stereo shop did this install for you, you may want to bring it back and have them fix it. FYI i installed an alpine deck in my car and had no alarm issues. good luck
