RIGHT?!? It’s like cutting off your nose to piss off your face! What the hell is going on, is there lead in the water? Those have always been the pussy horns, now people are doing it on purpose? There is no argument about the sound First set: powerful attention Second set: hamster chasing cheese 🧀

Agreed, but a horn is supposed to sound annoying, loud and catchy to get people's attention ASAP, which I think the Hella horns do the job well.

Cutting the original connector was completely unnecessary. You could have just plugged it into the original connector. You learn something every day I guess. Btw, stock ones sounded better.

stop, stop, stop! You guys have to isolate the female and male connectors from touching! Now, as it is connected, they will short out. Use some electrical tape or headsrink. If they stop working, the fuse is burnt! its weird it worked at all if u ask me..

If you did use some sort of isolation you have to show it since a lot of people that don't know about electrical stuff will see this and messed up their cars!!!!! Be responsible when uploading DIY videos!

Be sure to separate those two new metal connectors you installed otherwise it will short out the circuit and blow your fuse. Staggering the new connection is a good way to keep them separate.

Cover the exposed connectors with electric tape to avoid short circuit.

*PEOPLE FREAKING OUT* In the video, I did not show you to wrap the connectors in electrical tape, however I mentioned it would be a good idea. We did do it and separated the positive and negative connectors so they wouldn't short out. The style of connector we used would not touch, but for added measures, you can wrap them. Look at 11:19 and look at the connector on the left, how it is insulated in the electrical tape.

hey my golf mk4 2ltr gti keeps cutting out when I go for a short drive and engage the clutch, any idea what it could be?

Can you tell me what gauge wire that is? The red one you connected to the oem.

Solid video. I'm sure you guys have seen the comments about the OEM horn sounding better, they just do. The Hella horns sounded like tin cans. But you guys are saving many others from doing the work with the hella horns

Curious about reliability. The new ones seem really exposed to debris versus the housing used to protect the OEM.

Can you connect the other pin to the body? I good only one wire powering only one OEM.

hi milan so i got an oldtimer ( live in euorpe so might not know it ) its an trabant p601 kombi wich im working on and my car only has one horn and now im wondering does it matter a lot if you only use the high or the low pitch one when you're installing hella's

Another great vid, thank you. I have a problem with mine, i own a 96 civic hatch which has only 1 horn (sounds like a tonka truck), is there any way possible for me to connect both to the 1 connection? TIA.

what about some electrical tape or heat shrink tubing over the connection you made to the original wiring? It would prevent a short and the problems that come with it.

love it. keep up the fun and good work!

Do I need to ground hella horns? A lot of people are saying that they need to have ground. I'm just going to replace stock and put them where are they at without messing with wiring. Also looks like a lot of water will be hitting them driving on a highway. I know they are water resistant but u hope they last.

Hi.. I have a question ..??.. You have install the horns without the relay what is in set...?? Regards..

hey man, does it matter which terminal i connect to the horn? theres no instructions online telling what pin is what

My hella horns came with a relay. Do I need to install this to make it work?

Is there a certain gauge wire you need to use? I don't know anything about wiring please help

Cool but I think the original horns sounded better ! And it does matter if the connections of negative and positive are correctly attached. The horn speaker will pulled in if they are in the incorrect polarity not giving you a clear and proper sounding horn ..try with a speaker , you'll see it pulls the speaker in instead of outward...

I don’t give negative comments but fair play to you for making 13:32 min video out of replacing 2 horns, in eric the car guy couldn’t do that

I just want to know like what gauge wire to use and what the connectors are called, maybe a link?

What wire gauge did you use? Because I plan to do this for my Ricer Honda Fit.

R u gonna use dielectric grease and heat shrink over the connections?

Yeah definitely do something to protect the terminals from the elements. Also, you can get heat shrink instead of that snake skin sheathing, works much better.

Can you use 12 awg speaker wire for this application?

Hello, may I ask if the +/ - terminals is reversed ok or not? thanks

I would have used a wire adapter to mate with the OEM plug. This would give you a cleaner look and the ability to go back to stock if you are selling the car. Since you went the route you did, you could have used a heat shrink tubing at the end of the mesh wire sheathing. This will keep the end of the sheathing from splaying over time. Your stock horn actually sound better. I think the PIAA sports horn would sound better that the Hellas you've used here.

Thank you for this! I hope it's as easy to install on my ms3.

A lot of vehicles you could simply put a male spade on your jumper going directly into the original wiring harness with out cutting it.

Why didn’t you use another relay independently ? Wouldn’t that provide the loudest possible output from the horns by keeping the voltage stable

Does this change the sound of the locking sound?

is that possible to have more than 1 horn from different button?

Is it safe to split the wires to add a pair of hella horns instead of replacing them? I want my horns as loud as possible.

Where did you get the female and male wires and what's does isolate wires mean ..

Dam that sounded pretty dope! I wanna do that

Why weren’t relays used? I hope the current draw was considered otherwise before directly wiring straight from stock harness.

If you hook the wires up backwards the speaker will phase in the opposite direction making it sound weird. So try it both ways if it sounds funky

Can electronic horns like the OEM that your car had get wet??

They require a 30A fuse for the horn. Is that what you have in your car?

Good job guys.

What AWG wire did you use?

I'm surprised anything on this guy's car work. He twist wired his friends speakers together and didn't heat shrink and thing over it or anything. Have fun with electrical fires.
