General Fitting A New Airhorn

[fingers99]

cheers for everthing guys, i'll give it a bash

one other issue, where is the current horn located in the Sei engine bay?

Right at the front, bottom middle near side corner. May be easier to pull the bumper off, although you can reach in from below without.

Def easier not to remove the bumper, just jack it it and get under.

The horn is held onto a bracket by one bolt. But that bracket is held to the car body by two bolts. It will be easier just to remove these if your just taking the horn out.

I'd not put the nautilus down in that position if i was doing it though. There is a lot of spray. If you def are putting it there, make sure you use that breather attachment with a tube attached

im not hot on electrical terms etc. There has been a lot written here and a little confusion too.

A simpe diagram would be great. Also, where do the 2 currect red and black wires on the horn-push go to? Is one + and one - ?

many thanks

I think the best would be to put up a picture of the diagram you have on the box and someone can simplify and label it for you.

brilliant, cheers the 2 of you ! exactly what i was after !!
makes it much easier now.
One final question.......the 2 wires at the steering wheel horn push, presently one red, one black, these ok? i note from your diagram that one is black the other purple?
what will the red be and the black be?

I'm not going anywhere near the steering wheel with my thinking.

I am on about using the two wires that currently connect to the current horn in the engine bay. That way the relay can be placed next to the horn, and you have to do far less fiddling. with routing lots of wires.

ok i get ya there.

But can someone tell me what the 2 present wires are/lead to from the horn-push. 1 black, 1 red. Does one go to ignition? What should i do with these?
Finally, do Halfords sell all the bits n bobs i need?
cheers
