Do you have a picture of the coupler that you are looking for?

Consider using an auxiliary harness like the one from Hella. It needs a small mod (refer my post below) but any good automobile electrician can do it. It'll keep you warranty intact. The factory +ve lead will serve as the trigger.

Trying to change horns on my 2019 fortuner. Going by all the reviews, I have shortlisted Hella chrome Trumpet set of horns. Do i need to splice up any wires,change fuse or install another relay? I think the stock horns are rated 3A each. Will the Hella's be a simple plug and play? Thank you

[straight6]

Theres a new chrome horn from blaupunkt which is rated to be as powerful as the hella. Anyone using that one?

6RF 951 223B - HIGH TONE
Can anyone confirm me if they are the OEM horns of VW?

Hyundai (at least in i20, i10 and Creta) has a peculiarity with it's horns. They have a OEM coupler that fits onto the horns from the wiring harness. The horn itself has this male connector. The harness has the female connector.

These pics depict a Gen2 i20 but the connectors are the same as Creta type (for want of a better name).


Now my new (2020) i20 comes with a single Creta type horn Low tone and it sounds terribly anemic. So I want to add another Creta horn Hi tone to balance it out. But don't want to cut any wires. I understand that there already is a horn relay within the system, so apparently another relay is not required.

Any suggestions as to how I can go about this?

I found this connector on aliexpress. It looks the same as the OEM connector.

So now I have an extra Fiesta horn connector.....

Does it look like this? Picture of which I downloaded from Aliexpress page quoted by you.
Could it be useful for me?

OEMs do not make a fuss about installing an aftermarket horn or stereo, its normal. Purchase a Bosch \ Roots horn set (INR 600), relay, fuse and associated wiring. Take signal from Stock horn wiring to trigger the aftermarket horn. You can add a switch to swap between them as needed. Any accessory shop would do this for you.

Did you get these connectors and installed the OEM High Tone Horn?

I went to HASS and they fitted the Hi tone Creta horn with the required connections. No relay required.

Hi guys, I’ve just installed a Hella Chrome trumpet in my Polo GT TSI, the dual horn setup worked using the spare connector behind the right fog lamp.

I have 2 issues:

1. The sound is exceptionally loud inside the cabin.

2. There is a LOT of modulations in the sound I can feel the pitch constantly changing when honking for 4-5 secs or even in between 2 honks.

Can some one please help me solve the first problem and understand the second?

I’m now aware of the amperage of the OEM relay on the Polo or if the chrome trumpets are a mid fit.

Looking forward to help from fellow enthusiasts!

Check if the horn is facing downwards or not,also if its mounted close to firewall or facing the firewall the sound will be louder inside and not outside.

for the second issue, i think its better to use a relay, looks like there is no proper current flow causing the pitch difference unless of-course the horns themselves are defective.
The relay would help solve the current supply issue.

Hi @scorpian, can you please guide me with relay replacement? I don't trust the local electricians in the workshop and VW wouldn't do anything which is not bone stock.

I would suggest opting for harness from Vaishnu sold in Amazon. I have bought their regular LED lighting harness to power the LED cubes. Finding them to be good, I asked them to give me a customized harness which would switch the hi/lo function to lo/hi and support 4 Rallye 4000s with two separate relays for each pair. They did a wonderful job with a single harness with three relays and four fuses and even came on video call and guided me in the DIY process too.(I had trusted a number of 'good' electricians and have come sorely disappointed. Their customer support is good and you can aak them to customize a relay to suit your requirement by sending them pics of the parts. They reply promptly and get the job done at a reasonable rate. Link
I myself have ordered one to mount two trumpets Hella and Generic and will be mounting them DIY soon using their harness. These will consume 600 watts and their relay can take 800 watts.

Disclaimer: I am no was related to them and am from the opposite end of the country. I am just happy that the harnesses in my car have been finally trouble free after over 30,000kms of headaches from numerous visits to 'reputed' electricians. I tore all the old wiring out by myself and put in two harnesses.

I realized my CB350 single horn is not sufficient for highway riding. When cruising at any speed above 60kmph, it is difficult to hear the meek sound. The sound of Honda’s dual horns are also not to my liking. Which power horn should I go with? I am completely clueless in this department, and I trust the minds here to guide me in the right direction.
