On many cheaper systems instead of tying into a door trigger the system itself senses changes in the vehicles voltage from the dome light kicking on. The reason this is less commonly used is its easily defeated by a burnt out bulb or the customer switching their dome light off completely.

My own reaction is so intensely negative that I have been known to say I hope the damn thing IS being stolen, and if it means a quicker end to the noise, that I hope the thief will be quick about his work.
