^^Plug-n-play. Mine didn't even come with the relays. Hardest part for me was unloosening the nuts
on the Hella horns to be able to use the OEM brackets. Literally took me 10 mins for total install. The
only thing I did was pull out the horn fuse so I didn't blow it while installing the new horns.

I like this write up. It's pushed me to put a set of Hella air horns that have been sitting in my office on the tC, especially since I'm a fan of not being run over by large SUVs and trucks.

Installed the horns yesterday. My first wiring type work for my car, so it's not that clean (the wiring or the engine bay). Brackets are the big 3" L's from Lowes. I had a heck of a time finding the right tools to secure everything because all the nuts and bolts I picked up were standard and all my tools are metric. I also picked up 5' of solid 14 ga wire instead of stranded wire, but fixed that situation rather quickly. On to the pics!

Edited to add: Can't seem to get the bbcode to work correctly. Could someone point out whatever I'm missing here?
