Is the hella supertone really loud? Good price, good looking, but does it deliver?

The plugs on the horns will be different from the OEM. Also, You may want to run a separate relay as the required current may be more than the stock system can handle.

So I'm assuming you disconnect the oem horn and replace the relay with a 12v one. Where do you then screw in the horns if you want to put them on the vents under the license plates?

Did you listen to that sound clip? WAY higher pitched then the Hellas are.

Really? I saw a video on YouTube of the Hellas and it was just a high pitched loud beep, that sounds deeper I may be wrong. This one sounds similar to a train horn but smaller
