Does anybody have pictures of where the stock horn is located in front of the bumper?It seems like its located in the bumper on the passenger side.Can anybody snap a few pictures for me.

Thanks

 

Junpower, Did you ever find the horns? According to the parts manual there are two; looks like they are behind the headlights. but I can't tell. Do I need to remove the front bumper to access them or do I need to remove the wheelwell plastic? Pics would be great.

Thanks,
Nick A.

Thanks mysql. That's exactly what I needed. I'm installing the same horn but am not removing the original horns. The new horn and relay are now mounted where the passemger side intake for the VFAD used to be and the 20 amp fused positive cable run through the hole with the hood latch wiring past the coolant overflow straight to the battery. The horn and relay are grounded to the sheetmetal near the mounting location.

Now I'm trying to figure out where to tie into the horn wiring. I could run all the way to the horn. Should I do that or try to tap into the harness?

Thanks for any input.

Thanks for the helpful comment kersh4w.

 

train horns????

 

I swapped mine out for Hella Supertones. Scares the **** out of dumbasses!

 

The HELLA horns are killer. 118db of get the **** out of my way.

 

The Stebel Nautalis is 139 db!!!

Not sure I'm cool with the "insert a fuse 5 amps larger then OEM" part of those instructions.

But I want one.

 

Holy hell, 139db. LOL. what is the stock horn rated at?

 

The sound would seem odd coming from a car, the HELLA's are just pissed off sounding. Scares the **** out of people.
