Simple. How do i do it?
I want it to look discreet.
I have the 2 prong push button and a regular horn.
I need wiring but what gauge?
Also do i need a relay? and do i need to connect a fuse holder aswell? or what?
I dont want to run a wire directly to the battery where in the main fuse box can i wire to?
Help me :(
Thanks.

    What type of horn? 2 wire or does it ground thru the bracket?

    it has two prongs with wires, negative and positive, it came off a honda supposedly my friend told me.
    it looks like the one on my car already.

    wire one side of the switch to positive feed from the fuse box. the other side of the switch goes to the positive on the horn, ground the other wire on the horn :)

    can you be specific. dash fuse box? under the hood fuse box? and i dont know where to wire it too, or atleast where there is power to.
    also i dont need a relay or fuse holder?

    A inline fuse holder would be a good idea.. you won't need anymore than 10amps.. the wiring could be 18awg. at the fusebox under the drivers side, there are 4 open slots above the fuses. one of them is constant, you can use a spade connector to connect to it.

    Success!
    i was doing wagodizzle's rear horn set up. (:D)
    sounds deeper than the original horn on the car, going to get an exact ef horn, dont like the deepness.

    Just curious, why rear horn? Just to honk at people and see the dumbfounded look on their faces? I am curioius because I have a few extra horns laying around at just might do it myself.
    Thanks,

    somepeople are slow and they stay behind my car when i back up so i honk :D.
    others that tailgate or have high beams and then i honk again (working on getting HID reverse lights to a switch) :D
    mostly to warn when i back up, but i like to honk out of nowhere and people get scared or confused :D

    Sounds like a good idea then, im always backing out of the garage and cant see everything, would be good to honk and then pull out.
    thanks
