Default Horn relay???

I have a 2010 Unlimited Sport and I want to install a couple of REAL horns on my JK. I have unplugged the anemic stock horn and I can hear a relay clicking at the "convenience center" in front of the battery but the clicking doesn't seem to be coming from any of the relays in the box Has anyone found the real horn relay? There must be one near the box but I can't find it.

Also, there is a fuse in the box for "right and left" horns. Pulling the one for the "right" horn does not enable the ONE stock horn. Is there a connector in place for the right horn and if so, anybody know where it is?

Thanks in advance,

Steve

I put a large 8" snail from an old 350 class truck in mine. I hung it from the hood and I placed the original stock horn on the same bracket so they honk together. I made a bracket so that the horns fit right into the hole that is in the left quad of the engine bay closest to the firewall.

I used the original feed to the stock horn and ran it over to another 30 amp relay that has a feed straight from an auxiliary panel I made. You could just run a line from the battery to the relay.

Works great and two horns really have some oomph!

I don't think there is another connector. The 'relay' or I think is a transistor is internal inside the relay/fuse box from my understanding. I need to upgrade to an external relay with my caddy horns...

Thanks for the replies. There's a relay hidden in there somewhere because with the "horn" disconnected, you can hear a "click" every time the horn button is pushed but I sure can't find it. I'll go with the second relay... Thanks!
