installation of hella horns. :)

i want to install my hornies!

i just bought some hella horn a couple of months ago( brand new).

i have no idea how to connect them; i know that you could use your stock wiring but i am no electrician and thus i DO NOT want to f*uk my electrical system up.

any taker on hooking it up?

Free labor could be great, or ill buy you some lunch.

money is a fellow hardship if that makes sense.

It's really not that hard. If you do it yourself, not only do you save some buck but you also get the satisfaction of doing your own mod.

Here's a pretty solid tutorial http://homepage.mac.com/brianslick/supertones.html

Yeah. I advise not using the relay. It's a **** load more work and for nothing really. "they" say it makes it a smidge louder but not really. Just unplug your old horns.. Plug in the new ones.

They're sound is well worth it, I'm ordering mine now. So is the plug n play relay that can be ordered with the horns really not worth it?

There is a relay that comes in the box.. I used it but if I had known at the time that it wouldn't do much.. I would've left it. Basically there is a positive wire connected to your stock horns.. you take that and plug it into your hella horns and then make a wire from - go to a grounded spot. Pretty simple stuff. I think I might actually put a second set in my car.
