Horn Replaced with Hella
Finally did my horn upgrade. I wanted to replace my horns with Bosch Super Tones but they were too big for both sides. My other alternative was to install them behind the grill but again was too big. Plan B was to use my Hella Super Tones. Passenger side took me 10 minutes to install. Driver side was a pain the behind. First is was too tight to remove the existing horn bracket. I had to force my hand in there. Then the wire was too short to pull too.
For the driver's side, I used 2 brackets to create an L shaped bracket and used the same bolt location of the original horn. I didn't want to drill a new hole because the space is too tight for a drill. So after 1 hour and a few scratches to my hand, got it done.
Here are some pics.
