I got them and I installed my batteries in the old alarm.
Here are the pictures I took as I went through the replacement.

I put my alarm in a three jaw chuck and with the alarm spinning I carefully sawed through it with hacksaw with the edges ground flat, that way it just cut on one surface.


The board with four of the eight battery legs removed, all of them were removed and the holes cleaned out with a .045" diameter drill.


The modified batteries showing the one battery terminal converted to two. The negative terminals need to be modified, they are not as far apart as the positive terminals and this prevents the batteries from being installed the wrong way.



The siren in the half shell.



The other half of the siren.


The new batteries on the board assembled in the siren body.

The body was then glued together and taped as in post number one.
