    oh and does anyone know how to wire these up to only fire after i've held my horn down for a while. it's a random thought and don't know the feasibility. what i'm thinking is maintaining the stock horn for polite beeps and then hold down and it will go to WTF R U DOING!

    Or a timer circuit. Would not be too hard to build one. Tons of schematics of timing circuits on the web.

    The horns aren't driven directly anyway. There is a switch/relay that takes the signal from your horn switch and then sends full 12v power from the battery to the horns. You would likely be able to vampire splice off one of the wires leading to the existing horns and then wire through a time-delay switch to the Hella relay. The only problem I can think of is fitting all 4 horns inbetween your grill and radiator - you might have to move one of the regular horns to make way for the beautiful Hellas.

    the delay relay will cost about as much as the horns :(

    The kit should include a relay. It's just the time-delayed relays that would cost extra, but I'm guessing most people wouldn't want those.

    Anyone have a db meter? It'd be interesting to have one at the install night. I'd like to see if we can measure the difference between the hella relay and the stock relay. I think the stock relay should be big enough to push the hellas if the stock horns are disconnected... it'd be interesting to test. At least on my car I have a 15amp fuse for the horn, so the relay is probably more than that, and I think the supertones will pull 12amps.
