12 volt horn replacement?
ok so my horn on my fit got water in it and is ruined so i decided to replace it with a much louder 12 volt horn but im wondering if the horn will be too much for the stock wiring? has any one else done this? i can use some tips!

sounds great, definately not the horn youd expect coming from a fit
Amazon.com: Stebel Compact Air Horn - Packaged By Flosser: Automotive
a little disappointed seeing that they dropped the price right after i ordered it

Take care - you might blow a fuse like I did soon after I installed my Stebel. That fuse will also take out the cruise control if I remember correctly.
I ended up w/ a 20A fused lead off the battery positive to a relay which is tripped by the stock horn circuit. If you search the forum for Stebel Nautilus you should find my threads on it.
GREAT horn by the way, eh?

Were you using the cruise and the horn at the same time to blow the fuse or just the horn? How hard was it to install the relay?
But yes great horn! Great way to Not only get peoples attention but make them flinch

The fuse blew on a long horn blow the day I installed it. I really wanted to hear it it was like the second or third blow... Cruise was not engaged.
Relay was easy once I had a bit of help figuring it out. 20A line from positive to 1/2 relay - out of relay to new horn ,ground horn. Existing horn lead into other 1/2 of relay, ground relay. When you hit horn it trips relay and energizes new horn.

ive blown my horn probably 10 or more times without the car on and it hasnt blown a fuse, but to be safe i might have a new little project today now that i have a full understanding on how to install the relay. thanks for the heads up!
