Default Alarm light?

I bought this car used. Is the little red light beside the vent part of the factory alarm, or did someone add this?

The reason I am asking is because other TA's don't seem to have it.

That is not factory - probably part of an aftermarket alarm system. The factory alarm has a red LED on top of the dash next to the defroster vent.

I've got one in that general location on my car. It was put in aftermarket. Stupid guys didn't think to use the factory LED.
Like said above, the factory one is in the vent grille on the dash pad.
