Talking I have an oil filter alarm?

As I was changing my oil today, I reached in from the drivers side to grab my oil filter. I loosened it, and the minute it lost contact with the filter housing, my alarm went off. WTF??

Turns out I was leaning on my panic button for my aftermarket alarm that was in my pocket. lol, scared the crap outta me though.

Just had to share my stupidity with the forum.

If it makes you feel any better, I had the car locked for some reason when I was trying to get my hood open -- hood release cable broke.

I finally got the hood to open and experienced approximately 1 second of joy before the alarm went off -- blowing the horns that were about 3" in front of my face. It was a little STARTLING to say the least....
