I have a horn without compressor. What is involved with switching to this horn?

I am not an expert, so please check with a qualified tech. That being said, I simply drilled two holes where my previous horn was for the air hoses to get through. Then I ran those hoses to the small compressor. They included one with the kit, but I purchased the upgraded one that looks the same but is a little bigger. The compressor wires then get attached to the relay, horn switch and positive and negative wires, one with a fuse. For something without a large tank attached to it, I can't believe how loud it gets. Quite impressive.

Yes! Use the relay that came with the horn and hook it up in parallel with the existing horn. This way it won't put any additional load on the existing horn circuit.

No, you do not need to use USB. The compressor and EQ are individually adjustable for each channel. The compressor is like a minimal Compressor with only one knob for adjustment which allows you to add more or less compression. No adjustment for Attack, Release, etc.

I did replace my compressor when I did the shocks. I definetly recommend changing it. It's money well spent.

You will need a vehicle specific installation adapter. Horn will work after installation. This item is for installation on NON-airbag equipped vehicles

I had a small compressor that I bought at Lowes. not big enough. I have now upgraded to a two stage compressor that does the trick. I was just using too many things at once on the old compressor. I think if I had nothing else hooked up to it I would have been fine.

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.

Not really sure but I doubt you will need two horns, it's pretty frigging loud. I don't see why it wouldn't I can make a dozen or so good blasts before the air gets low, but I don't have it powered full time

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.

The hardest part will be fknding the location of the stock horn. From there you will have tqo options depending on yoir setup. You might be able to just plug and play or you might have to splice two wires. Simple and straight forward.

there are no momentary switchs. I was able to buy some at my local marina and switch them out for the horn

David, It will not work connecting it to the existing horn circuit alone. Here is a site that has very good installation instructions: http://www.valkmotive.com/installation-nautilus-419-519-619-vm2-nm2-gp-418-404-415. I hope that helps! JD

All you get is the compressor. Your question is not specific to a particular model and you may find better answers elsewhere.

I have 150psi on board air system with a regulator that keeps 110psi to the horns. Once pressure gets below 90psi you can start hearing a difference in sound.

You don't need the solenoid. The horn has it's own solenoid. I made the mistake of buying the compressor together with a solenoid only to confirm with Wolo that the horns already come with a solenoid.

yes. it is just a matter of running two wires from the existing horn wire posts to the new horn wire posts. when the horn button is pressed both horns will sound.

Yes, however you should consider disconnecting the original Horns since the additional load of the Wolo on the horn wiring will likely blow a fuse.
