Default Hella Supertone Wiring

Hi guys...
I just finished the install of a set of Hella Supertone horns on my 2010 JKU. There are a bunch of posts on this board already covering these horns, but I was unable to find one detailing the wiring. The horns come with a relay, and a crappy set of instructions on how the wiring should be run.

After some searching on the web, I was able to find a site with the wiring diagram for a motorcycle.... coupled with the crappy Hella instructions, I was able to complete the install. So here is the wiring diagram, complete with a picture of how I hooked up the horns.

I started with picking up the following:

10' or so of black 12 gauge wire
2 10/12 gauge tap splices
6 10/12 gauge female insulated disconnect terminals
2 10/12 gauge ring terminals (for the ground and battery)

The clips from the stock horn fit into the 86 and 85 slots of the relay- the lavender wire goes to 86. The other one goes to 85.

Hope this helps someone down the line....

I have those same horns and all i did is use the stock wires, tap two more onto them,and run them to the other horn. Didn't use relays or anything.
