RE: help! looking for a new horn

Here are two manufacturers that won't break your budget and should have something loud that fits in the OEM location.

The stock horn only needs (+) power, the horn itself is (-) grounded by being bolted to the
frame. There should be just one wire going to the horn. If you have a voltmeter and put the red probe on the wire and the black probe to the body/frame you should read 12v when someone beeps the horn.
