I started by disassembling the motion alarm and cleaning the inside of everything.
There are only 3 screws holding it together. There is one for the battery compartment and two inside of the battery compartment.
Once you have it all taken apart you can remove everything inside except for the on/off switch.
In my case I wanted to have a momentary switch so I also removed the on/off switch.
