Do I need to get a relay for every door or not? Im not installing it with a horn. I heard the relays are built in. Are they?

The kit comes with a relay. All four actuators will be wired to that same relay.

If your car does not come equipped with power locks, you would need door actuators and depending on the car and how many doors you want to have with keyless entry, you would need a relay. This is only if you would like the keyless entry portion of the system.

Not necessarily. You can install the horns directly to the existing wiring. I did this as I have them on a motorcycle. They might not be as loud in a car though. They should actually be wired to a relay that allows full voltage/amperage to get to the horns and the actuation is via the original horn wiring. By the way, great horns, good sound.

The horns themselves are, yes, though you will want to weatherproof the connectors somehow. I have them mounted on a motorcycle, right up front by the headlights, and have never had an issue with them even after riding in the rain. It's also worth noting that to run these correctly, you're going to want to use the supplied relay. Wired up according to the diagram, there is no voltage at the terminals until you press the horn button and energize the relay.

Yes, it will come with all relays and fuses needed. Below is a link the installation instruction. Step 3 and step 4 make a mention of the maxi-fuses and the replays being provide with the kit.http://www.towready.com/support/installation/N118242.pdf

I used these on a 2007 Jeep SRT-8 and they required no relay. They plugged directly into the factory harness. Very easy install.

I agree with Kerry...mine came with the relay...loud and I feel safer now! Be sure and use the relay!!!

My came with two types of fuses, one of them was the correct one. There was no need for a relay, since one was already installed from the factory.

That relay is for the starter kill. The alarm will still work if you don't hook it up. You have to locate the wire that goes from the starter to the ignition. Cut the wire. Hook up the black to the starter motor side and the green to the ignition side. I used snap connectors. That way if you ever need to disconnect the starter kill it'll be easier. Just make sure it's not easily accessible to a thief. Good luck.

not really anything, just a car or a 12v source and about an hour. comes with the wiring you need. It MIGHT not have a switch, but I think mine did, it's been like two years since I installed it- still sounds great! tools wise you'll need basic hand tools and a drill if you choose to mount the switch separate from your regular car horn, which I recommend.

They are separate. It's your choice. It seems that the relay is not the best so you may want to order a spare. fyi.

Yes there is a relay included. I do not recommend this horn. Way too high pitched of a horn tone. Not "manly" at all.

Barb, you might need more wire, depending on where the horn is located. I had my original horn replaced (because now most car horns are weak) so additional wire was not needed.You will really like this horn.

You'll need to first see if and where there's space under the hood to install the unit. You'll also probably need to change your fuse to your horn to handle the higher current it pulls. And yes, you'll likely need to cut some wires, and get out your soldering iron

In a word, "Yes." Just be quick about getting off the horn button, especially if you have these in addition to the OEM horns. That requires wiring in the supplied relay. The best of both worlds..IMHO.Good luck.

When you install it you will need some wiring to go from horn button & battery/power to unit. If you are replacing an existing horn, you probably can use the existing wires.

Steve, I installed the Fiamm 72112 Freeway Blaster and the Fiamm 72102 12 V High Note horns (I really think that you need both) on my 1966 MGB that has a 20 Amp Fuse and a stated max Amp draw of 3 1/2 amps. I had planned on installing a relay, but horns worked so well that I never installed it. I would simply install one or both of these horns and if they blow a fuse, then install your relay. I hardly ever use my horn, but when I do they do get Semi drivers attention. Best $30+ dollars I ever spent. I hope this helps.
