Hella horns - Anyone installed them ? (gen 6)

[private_number]

anyone installed these before?



I know it should be easy, but was wondering if someone could give me an explanation on how to wire these using stock wiring? Just wanna make sure 100% before i do it.

Thanks in advance fellas

I have, but on my gen 5. Should be pretty similiar though... the stock horns are grounded through the mounting bracket, the hella horns are not. So you will need a short length of wire (with quick disconnect terminal crimped on one end, and ring terminal crimped on the other end) to go from the negative of the horn to the mounting bolt. the stock plug should go right onto the positive of the horn.

Some pictures:

in the same way, that's why I didn't bother taking pictures of the second one. each stock horn has its own plug, but with the hella horns you will need a short length of wire to connect the negative terminals to the mounting bolt for each horn.

you also need to use the relay i believe

Are they a dramatic improvement over the stock horn?

[jchin92]

the difference is okay but not loud enough for me. lol my friend was 4 pairs in his tundra. im planning to add 2 pairs.

only if you want the horns at their loudest. for me, using the stock wiring was more than enough. it's plenty loud and definitely a big improvement over stock with no relays.

Where would I add the relay ? Between the stock wiring and the first connection to the first horn correct?

a how to would be nice for this ... i been looking at those myself

the relay has 4 terminals. 1 is for the positive wire from the battery. the other is the positive wire to the horns. the 3rd is a ground. and the 4th is the connection from the switch(original harness)
