Had another person pull in front of my today, fed up, so I went down and got the $18 pair of air horns down at Harbor Freight...
After searching I know a couple people have them mounted on their 914's (Howard, and Dr. Evil I believe, maybe some others?) Anyways, how am I supposed to wire this baby up? It's got the relay thing. Here's the thing though, I want to retain my STOCK horn and have a switch near the dash or on my center console so I can choose either the air horns or the stock horn. Possible? I know I've seen it done before. I'm not too good at wiring, so here's a copy of the wiring instructions for the air horn, the big thing near the top is the compressor. Any help? Attached image(s) |

Like that? |
