It's by the bulkhead straight in front of the driver.

It’s within the right hand bonnet lock. There’s a tilt sensor in the right hand front wheel arch behind all the liners.
It should not trigger the alarm when the key is in and ignition on, that points at a system fault as it should turn the alarm off - unless it’s been played with?
The main alarm controller is in the FZD roof module (in the roof of the car somewhere I assume from that description).
