Hey hey everyone. I'm taking advantage of having my new to me integra un-insured and disassembling / cleaning everything. I'm going to rent a steam vacuum, and went ahead and removed the front seats today. I then stumbled across this under my seat:
http://www.dbmiata.com/integra/alarm.jpg
It says Security Control Main Unit on it, and has a bunch of dials and switches. I see on the back of it where a bunch of wires would plug in, however there is no wires going into it. Presently there is a Viper or viper half breed alarm installed. First off, what is this doing under my seat? Was it normal for all Integra's (96 SE 4 door) to come with this unit, and only some were wired up? Also, what would be involved in getting the factory alarm back up and running? I only have on FOB for the present alarm, and was thinking of either getting another FOB or doing a different alarm. Something just appeals to me about having the factory setup.
Now, the ebrake question. I noticed that one side wasn't locking, and I figured it could be the little ratchet in the caliper. Then, when I removed my center console, I found this:

It's obviously way out of adjustment, however I don't know how to adjust these things. It's one of the things I haven't had to do on any of my previous cars. Could someone suggest what I need to do? I figure I have to unscrew the center bolt, and them somehow equalize the two metal lines.
All help is appreciated!
