I then clipped the factory plug of the hot wire for the factory horn and put on a standard female spade connector and connected it to the (+) terminal of the STEBAL. I then took a 8 inch peice of 12 guage stranded wire and put a female connector on one end, then on the other end I used a standard eye connector, I connected the spade end to the (-) side terminal of the STEBAL and the other end to the mount bolt of the STEBAL to ground it out.

I then upgrades the factory fuse from a 10a to a 15a fuse...... all done!

the stock wiring is what, 16 gauge? that equates to much less than 300 circular mils per amp, which gets into the dangerous range. 8 feet of 16 gauge with 18 amps passing through it = about 144 cir mills / amp. i've replaced enough wiring in peoples' cars from improper wiring/crappy blue headlight bulbs to know that i won't skimp on wiring. the fuse is not for the device hooked on the other end, it is for the wire going to it. i would highly advise against just hooking the stock wire to the new horn. electrical fires are not fun...
