what is it?

[minili]

I'm going to try and keep it quiet til it arrives

EDIT: SEE BELOW FOR WHAT IT WAS

[minili]

I am but a clueless ladything, but really want to wire in my new horn this weekend - on it's own circuit because I want to keep the original horn on the original switch. So I need some help!

I'll start at the beginning... Are you sitting comfortably?

First off, I bought myself (& my Mini of course) a present off eBay:



Then I bought a wiring kit from my local Motorists Centre (Wendover Motor Spares, the legend that is):


The relay has 4 connectors (I don't know what I'm meant to call them) numbered as follows:


Could somebody please advise what happens from now, the wiring kit came with instructions for lights but I'm assured it is all usable for the horn. I want to use a brake test switch to operate it if I can get one, not the on-off switch that came with the wiring kit (waiting for someone to tell me if they have a spare they can give me tomorrow). I intend to mount the horn under the bonnet somewhere, have to find something flat to bolt it to though

Please help, with helpful instructions (and diagrams? ) asap

Or failing that pop round my house tomorrow and help me out I will of course help! I want to do it myself but I seem to be all out of faith
I'm not very good at making tea (don't drink it) but can ask mum to show you where the tea-making facilities are

(yes I posted this in Technical too, need all the help I can get!)

what size wellers do you want? that horn is far to small!

[minili]

Lol it's not small! Anyway it's not how big it is, it's how good it is

It makes lots of noise

And I'm hoping for 5x12 wellers why?

[youngson]

not posted on this in a while. you have done alot of work since the last time i was on. looks realy nice by the way.

[GiroUnit]

it's not small! Anyway it's not how big it is, it's how good it is.

best quote ever!

and i asked about the wellers because i have around 20 of them but they are all 10's..

[minili]

Dang!

Got the horn (fnar) wired up today, eeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!


OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOGAH!!

It's on the normal horn button with a switch on the dash to flick between the normal horn and the special one

Just read the whole thread! Minty Rocks! Pity you don't live nearer as I'd be happy to do all your spraying stuff.

[minili]

Thanks PBP and yes it is a pity!

One day I'd love it completely resprayed to make it look extra pretty (thinking almond green with white/cream weller wheels) but money says otherwise

[panelbeaterpeter]

Oof! that would look the sex. My 12/5 wellers will be for sale when I get 10's, I can let you know when, if you'd be interested
