hella supertones install question

krambte79 · 04-09-2007, 10:41 PM

when installing the new hella horns can i just hook up to the wire from the old horns and also wire in a ground for each horn...... or is there something more to this? thanks i am not an electrical genius. the horns came w/ a relay and schematics but i know the car (o5 sti) already has a relay.

You will be fine with the stock wiring. I've run my supertones for two years now and have never had any problems... and I use them A LOT!

There's a full install guide floating around here somewhere. I will say that although the horns work fine with the stock wiring, running a relay produces significantly more volume.

Use the relay's provided its really not that hard to install just look up the install guides on here and you will get it. If you do not used the provided relay's then there was no point in buying them.

I hooked them up to the stock wiring and ran the ground to the mounting bolt. Don't worry they're plenty loud!
