Hella Supertone
 
Can anyone point me in the direction of a genuine set of Hella Supertone horns? I can find them on eBay for £30 but think they may be fake.

Production of Hella supertones was moved to India many years ago, so what you may think is fake is probably not - unless extremely cheap :)

That's great, cheers. Perhaps the ones I have viewed aren't fake after all!

I have a Blob WRX, do they need to be fitted with the relay? I have seen plenty of people do it without but have seen concerns over the power the Supertones draw for the small OEM horn wiring.

From the Hatch onwards Subaru run the horns on separate wiring right from the oem relay so no additional relay/wiring required.
Prior to that it is a single feed wire from the oem relay to close to the horns so operating the supertones using an additional relay/direct battery feed is necessary.

Awesome, cheers Don
