The OE horn has a single connector to live.The earth is through the mounting bracket.

The Stebel has two connectors. The OE live feed goes to one (the one you unplugged from your old horn).

You then need a short length of wire with a spade type connector one end & a ring type the other. The spade goes to the negative on the horn body & the ring goes to a mounting bolt to earth to the chassis.

The std single connector will be used to feed the coil of a suitable 12v relay.

LoL, see if I can get a tin of chunky M&S ones for the ARB

Oh, and the horn is a bit loud. Took 13 seconds for the first horn blast to go and bounce back at the end of the clip.
