Finally a proper install video! I'm gonna order that harness. Thanks for that link ;)
No problem, glad I could be of help. Let me know if you need any other help during the install and I’ll see what I can do.
@@KDMCurt Thanks for the offer. I do have a question. I seem to have only one OEM horn on my 2000 Impreza rs. So what would you do? Split the positive and negative to make a total of 4 wires? Is it recommended?
Also, I was told that cars have relays and everything we need from OEM so we don't need the wiring harness kit with relay. What do you think about that?
Thanks in advance.
@@enriquecabanelatte2495 if you have one horn then I would only replace one horn, splicing the one cable to two horns may cause some power issues. Some cars do have wiring harnesses already available for these types of installs. I’m not too familiar with that car though.
@@KDMCurt Thanks mate!
Thanks man this helped with my hella horn install on my Volvo!
Awesome! Glad I could help out!
Can I use t-tap connectors for the splicing of the wires that connect to the steering wheel horn button?
Love how Hella horns look but hate how they sound
great video
Thanks!
Cool, this is exactly the video I was looking for. I’ve got a 2016 optima. I’m connecting train horns in addition, not instead of the original horns. I plan on getting power to the new horns from a fuse tap at the horn fuse. I’ll be using a relay after the fuse tap. Do you see any problems with this plan?
@KDM_curt
So what happens if your original horn only had a positive connection and was grounded to the body how would you wire the negative on the trigger harness
You should be able to run that negative from the harness to area where your battery is grounded or the negative terminal on the battery
Horn
Are the stock horns of your car connected to a relay before you disconnected it? I’m about to install mine and i’m still confused about the relay harness. My stock horns doesn’t have a relay harness or a ground connected to it. Just a single wire connected to the back of the horn. I’m thinking of buying the harness but some people say that the only difference without having the relay harness is the sound quality, which will definitely be weaker compared to the one with a relay. I’m just worried about the trigger thing you mentioned that would set the horn off
Nope, my horns didn’t have a relay before I added that one in the video. I’d say go ahead and buy it not only does it improve their sound quality it helps to make sure they don’t short circuit. Think of the trigger wire as basically just the power wire.
I had some issues with mine as you said when just power an ground the wire the horns will go off with out a trigger wire. Funny thing is I don’t know where to put my trigger wire at are where to run it to. So I need some pointers.
The stock horns sounds better lol like a BMW
The camera mic doesn’t do these justice, they sound way better and louder in person.
That’s the thing the mic, picks up the clarity with the stock all loud and firm and clear sounds more aggressive too, the hella horns sounds fried, what type of stock horns are those? I want to buy a pair.
@@orvillewright8928 just regular Kia/Hyundai horns.
@@orvillewright8928 Hella dual/twin tone are the ones you're looking for... And I also agree... Stock horns sound better...

Great video, im going to make my own wiring, im not sure if i missed it but what size fuse did you use, thanks
This wiring harness with the relay actually already had a fuse wired in to it which is why I went with a pre-built wiring harness. It’s kind of hard to see but at about 1:00 in the vid you can see the smaller black box in the bundle of cables, that’s where the fuse is.
@@KDMCurt thanks
I installed this exact setup and it doesn't work.
Question, do you NEED to hook up the ground to the battery or can you frame mount it? I frame mounted it, no beep so far just a click.
My battery terminal bolts would need to be longer to fit the negative wire on
I don't think it has to be hooked up to the ground at the battery, just somewhere in the car that is grounded. Make sure you have the connectors fully slid on to the posts. Also, if you spliced wiring like I did make sure you are getting a good connection where those splices are at. You may want to re-tighten them with a crimping tool the be sure.
Just came here to say I got the horns working and man they sound great! I had to bypass the stock horn wire and mount a button on the dash for it to work, but I'm happy with it.
By any chance do you happen to still have your OEM horns laying around? I’ll take one off your hands bro
I would but I’m trying to keep all my stock parts just in case I need to re-install something.
What have you done with stock second socket ?
Did you replace the relay to hella relay that comes with it?
I didn’t use the Hella relay that came with the horns but I did buy another whole wiring harness from Amazon I believe the brand is iJDMtoy the link for it should be in the description of the vid.
@@KDMCurt sorry I meant switch the relay? Or did you just use what comes with the kit?
I used the relay that came with the iJDMtoy wiring harness, it was already wired up and ready.
Sounds like the dude from American Pie..
