Default Wiring Supertones - help!
I am in a bit of a dilemma about how or rather which method to chose.

Option a:

disconnect the old OEM horns (each as two spade connectors) and remove them. fit new horns and use OE wiring/relay to new horns

Option b:



plus put an inline 20A fuse between battery and #30

Option c:

Which option should I use. Would option a be safe and will the horns work ok without any problems down the line??

Option B is what I'm going to do when I work out where to place the horns around the PS cooler.

Going to fit these at the weekend but one probably stupid question - Does it matter which terminal at the back you connect to positive 12v, two terminals dont have any markings on them.


Cheers,

If there's no markings, then no, it doesn't matter.

If you look inside a relay, it should really be 85 from existing horn, 86 to earth, but again, it'll work your way
