that it's not that bad. What you need to do is connect your ...
Used these to replace the horns on my 2008 Toyota Prius. For anyone with at least a Gen 2 Prius, 2004-2009 (maybe later generations as well), these horns will replace your meepy stock horns. HOWEVER...this is very important that you realize this is a 2-terminal horn so it requires a little extra wiring. Take it from me, someone with no experience, that it's not that bad. What you need to do is connect your stock adapter (after you pull it from your stock horns), then connect it to the top "16" terminal on the horn. Next step is to create a ground wire (I used 16 gauge + 1/4" female terminal adapter + 3/8" metal ring adapter) and attach it to the bottom "10" terminal on the horn, so that it looks like the photo below. These horns sound so much better, lower, and like a real car. Get them over the El Grande or the Freeway Blasters.

Great fit for Subaru! Instructions and pictures below
My 2018 Subaru Impreza came with the standard wimpy horns that sound more like the Roadrunner saying "meep meep!" than an actual car horn. This set of Hella horns was a perfect replacement for the factory ones. I was able to install the horns in the same two factory locations and was even able to use the factory positive wire and connector for each one (the factory wiring harness connector was a perfect fit for the contact on these horns, so I didn't have to cut any wiring or use any kind of adapters). The one thing I did have to add was a short piece of wire to connect one of the horn terminals to the mounting bolt on each horn to provide the ground connection. On the factory horns the ground is built into the mounting bracket but on these there is actually a separate ground terminal. This was an easy task though. I just used a short piece of 10 AWG wire and crimped a .25" female tab connector on one end and a ring connector on the other. Easy! Now my car actually sounds like a car with a classic honk sound! Tips: - You can download the Hella app on your phone if you want to hear what all their different horn types sound like. Subaru install instructions: - If you have a Subaru you can easily replace the top horn by just removing a couple of plastic trim pieces under your hood, the top horn is mounted right near the center of the front cross support beam by the radiator. (see my pictures) - For the lower horn on your Subaru it is most likely below the passenger side headlight. You don't have to remove the bumper cover to access it though (as some people will tell you). You can remove the trim piece and foglight/DRL on that side of the car and have access to the horn through the hole there. Just pry the trim piece away. You will then need to remove two of the clips under the car so you can pull down the splash guard and access the two clips and one bolt that attach the DRL to the car. Once you remove those you can slide the DRL out of the way and access the horn. (see my pictures for this as well)

Was able to put both horns on my Corolla, without drilling
Replaced stock 2006 Toyota Corolla disc horn with these. Stock only comes with one horn, but I installed both hi and low by using wire disconnect connectors and taping them up. I first looked for a harness splitter but couldnt find it. I got some from Lowes, but something like this should work... https://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B01EFOBVZ4/ref=mp_s_a_1_14?ie=UTF8&qid=1519142375&sr=8-14&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=disconnect+wire+connectors To attach the second, I used a 1/4" hex bolt with washers, lock washers, and nut (all galvanized) and put it in a pre-existing hole/slot that is just to the right of where the stock horn is screwed in. Then a little blue loctite so it wouldn't rattle off. That's also what the lock washer was for. [As i think about it more, i now think i could have attached both horns to the same bolt. Seems like the adjustable arms are long enough. Hmmmmm] Now my little corolla sounds grown up... with a little bass to the face

Better sound than the original horn.

Install Flash Player I installed this horns on a 2013 Toyota Corolla. Watch attached video. I used 16 gauge cable. When I find Toyota connectors, I will remake that pigtail with 18 gauge cable. The change once installed it’s obviously instant. The horns have same as stock connectors. So no need to cut. I just made a spliced pigtail to run from the original horn connector to both horns.

Install Flash Player I personally hated the "Meep Meep" (reference the video for the sound) of my 2013 Honda Accord Sedan Ex-L Horns. I didn't think anyone would take them seriously, so I purchased these Hella Twin Trumpet Horns which provided a much more satisfying sound as well as people hearing me when I honk the horn. Install: It was very easy on my car as I had a high and low horn with mounting brackets that looked exactly like the Hella Twin Trumpets. Disconnected the cable from the horn, unscrew the bolt (without dropping it into the splash guard LOL), and cut the original connector off of the wire, so that if I need to, I can rewire the connector and reinstall the OEM horns. I had to buy some more wire (I think 18 gauge) and some connectors to extend the wire to reach the new horns and to ground the horns. Once you connect the wire to the horns preferably using a terminal that crimps which makings soldering unnecessary. Realized that the horns needed to be grounded to work, connected another wire and grounded it to a bolt using a 3/4 circle shaped connector, then honked the horn, and wallah! A great new tone! Overview: For $30, I can drive safer on the road, and no longer here "meep meep" within 15 - 20 minutes was very satisfying. Great Product!

*sing along* YOU GOT TO MOVE IT MOVE IT
Working fine on my Wrangler. I removed the oem horn and put a relay on those wires. Now I switch the oem horn and these two on that relay and have a much more robust big truck sound. I put these facing downward and fwd on my front bumper so they're exposed to the elements and no sign of rust etc, they work well. Admittedly I'm an a-hole and I have no patience for people on their cell phones that aren't paying attention, people that dilly-dally around, people that just can't decide whether to go or not, old timers, anyone in a Prius, people that have no where to be on any given day or that have no business possessing a drivers license etc . . . all the Mr. Magoo stereotypes. All the other stereotypes. This combination gets attention and means business. I might even buy another set :D

My Camry Had A Serious Case Of Laryngitis
These duo-tone (two tone) car horns are a perfect replacements for my 2002-2006 Camry -- and, most likely most Toyotas. My old horns sounded like they had a serious case of laryngitis but these sound are as strong and loud as a new luxury model cars horn. The note on the website states that this does not fit my vehicle but this is not true. The connectors are a perfect fit for Toyota harnesses. Original Toyota horns are mono-toned, one high and one low, but these horns fit that bill as one. For Toyota and Lexus owners, I highly recommend this purchase.

Easy plug and play replacement for 2017 Accord
2017 Honda Accord: This is a virtual plug and play replacement. (run a UTube search for instructions). The bracket on the new horns needs to be rotated for alignment. The electrical clip is a match. The horns can be oriented so that they point almost straight down without increasing the length of the wiring. The amperage draw of the new horns apparently doesn't exceed the car's fused capability for its horns. (ie the horn fuse didn't blow) NOW I HAVE A REAL CAR HORN! Honda should be ashamed of the horns that come on new Accords.

Cheap, easy to install (if you're handy), pleasant deep/rich tone
I have a 2005 Subaru Legacy GT. The stock/factory horns are dual tone, meaning like this, one is low and high pitch. Recently, the low pitch one went out. I had never liked the tinniness of the stock horn so I took it as an opportunity to replace both horns. A new direct OEM replacement would've cost me about $12 shipped from Ebay anyway, so I figured $23 shipped for two new horns from a good aftermarket brand like Hella to replace my annoying stock horns was a good deal. The horns arrived in a Hella cardboard box, nothing special here. The only thing it comes with is a relay and the two horns, nothing else. No wires, connectors, nothing. I expected this so in case it wasn't clear, now you know. Also, the horns are most definitely RED. Don't be fooled by the picture here. They are NOT black. They are RED. Not that it mattered to me since they're hidden behind my bumper. Installation instructions are virtually non-existent so if you're the type of person that can't figure things out for him/herself, you may want to get some help, or have someone else put it in for you. The only thing included is a little relay wiring diagram which shows you which connector on the relay goes to what. In my own case, I did NOT need to use a relay since my car (and most modern cars, if I'm not mistaken) already have a relay for the stock horn. I was able to reuse the connection on my stock horn for the (+) connection, and I wired up a (-) ground directly to the chassis. Note: EACH one of these horns uses 6A of current, for a combined total of 12A. So make sure you select an appropriate gauge for your wires. These horns were a tiny bit larger than my stock ones, so I had to loosen up the tightening nuts on the rear so that I could pivot the bracket a bit. After installing, I tested them. They sound a bit louder than my stock ones even though my stock horn said 113dB on them and these are only 110dB. Go figure. The tone is definitely deeper/richer than stock... it has that European sort of sound. All in all, a good buy, and I recommend it, but make sure you are comfortable with wiring things up!

Review with tips on wiring a relay.
Great horn,very loud,I will buy another if I ever need a horn. If anyone needs installation instructions that are a bit easier to follow,then read on. RELAY:(numbers on bottom of relay) #85 pin on the relay should be grounded. #30 goes to your positive on the battery or any constant power source. #86 goes to your existing wire to your old horn/or new horn button,whatever you have. #87 is the positive wire that goes to the horn(s) terminals/connections. HORNS: There are two terminals per horn.It does not matter which one is positive and which is negative,as long as one terminal is connected to a power source and the other terminal is grounded. I used all 12 awg wire and connecters because I had some left over from a previous project.14 awg is what I would use if I were going to buy supplies to hook the horns up.
