They mount just like the stock horns do.

KayJai- Not sure what you mean. There are 2 stock horns. You replace the 2 stock horns with the 2 new horns. You can mount the "high" up front by the radiator, and the "low" back by the drivers fog lite...or reverse that. It doesn't matter. They both work off the stock wiring, so I don't know why you would want a relay.

For those that are wondering why 1 high and 1 low. Some people can't hear some sound frequencies. Some materials "filter out" some sound frequencies. So by going with one "high" and one "low" horn, you increase the chance that the other guy can "hear" the horns.

 

Random,

KayJai is saying, can you hook a total of 4 horns up......two horns per factory horn lead.

I would think it would overload the circuit, but it would be very easy to run a relay.

You wouldn't be able to hear the stock horn over the sound of the louder Fiamm Horn. There's no advantage to the additional complication/expense.

Why do you want to keep the stock horns?

 

Random,

Not to speak for KayJai again, but I think he wants to ditch the stock horns and have a total of 4, 132 DB horns, or at least this is what I have gathered from his post.

KayJai,

I wouldn't do it because.....the horns frequencies may cancel each other out a little thus hurting more than helping. I don't think 4, unless they were different tones, would make a difference at all.

 

HMA says to remove the front bumper to remove the horn. Is this nessecary? rolleyes.gif

heck no.

You can reach the "center" horn from underneath (gen2) or from up top (gen1).

The "drivers side" horn is accessable from under the car.

 

AllBlackTibby,... yeah I mean what you said the second time wink

I WANT to hook up 4 132dB horns, 2 Highs and 2 Low 132dB horns.

My question is, will this draw too much current, and will I need to hook up a relay to have this happen without always blowing fuses?

As well guess the new question would be what AllBlackTibby said,... will it "cancel each other out"???
I don't think so,... but Random???

And yeah real easy to hook up.
Like Random said, for the 1st gens just take that cowling that's infront of the Rad, by the hood release thingy(yes technical term tongue.gif ) and then you can change the horn from there, easy.
The other one's more of a PITA, you'll have to jack the car up, I suggest a floor jack. And stands if you feel better.
(Luckily I had access to a hoist fyou_hap )

For the 2nd G's you'll have to do both from underneath.
Only really pita was I found the wires for the one behind the fog light were really short, like 6" short, so I extended them 6" evil_gri

But yeah they hook up easy other than that.

 

i just removed my horn this evening, jsut to practice/play around w/it, and it was a major PITA. i had to take out my passenger's side corner lamp, which is easy, then remove a bolt.....which is hidden behind teh fog lamp assembly. so i took the cover off the fog lamp, and it was a bit easier...but not really. plus, the bumper was still pretty much in the way. kinda dumb for just removing a horn, but it's not too bad. definitely gonna have to get a high power one.

 

KayJai,

Not really sure if they will cancel each other out or not, there's realy a lot of factors that will come in to play, the main of which is the wavelength of the sound. There are so many factors involved here I highly doubt they would cancel each other out, but at the same time I don't think it will have the effect you are hoping for. I've actually found that a good 3 tone air horn gets more attention than anything.

having 2 of each type of horn should be fine. I dunno where the heck you are going to mount them all, but they would not cancel each other out, but they wouldn't be significnaly louder than just 2 would.

I would add in a relay to run them just to be safe, but you could try it without the relay, if you blow fuzes...install the relay kit.
