Where did you take the +12 power feed from? It may seem like an obvious question, but aren't these things quite high amps (don't want to be popping other fuses everytime you hit the horn)?
I'm in the process of adding in some extra horns now (not as big as the hellas, but still needing a relay).

My Evo 8 didn't need to use the relay - according to the additional tips & instructions sheet included by my vendor for the Hellas, most modern cars don't require the relay - it's only included for older cars (mostly that didn't come with an airbag). Just wondering if you really need the relay on the X?

Any sound clips on the hella horns? The stock horn is kind of gay and I would definitely replace it when I have some extra cash. Can the red easily be removed? Id want to paint it black when I put them on.

it's hard to get the true sound on video, since the db is so high it distorts the microphone
mounting on the x is pretty hard. i still don't know how rob got 2 up there lol. . . i have one mounted up there and one mounted by the licp, i run the MR mesh so you can see the horn if you're on your knees

you can check around, im pretty sure hella makes other horns as well as other companies, i forget the names but do a search some other members have installed other horns and i think they were black

the super horn designed for the german auto bahn. So it is LOUD. Also some reason it is not much louder then my stock from inside. But you can clearly judge it from the car. The car drivers and people on the street usually get scared when i'm using it.
