Do you know the part number for the splitter cable. I was thinking of doing the same thing.

Not sure what the part number is, since the instructions are all in Japanese. It says 08522-52010. I don't think that is just for the wire splitter.

Installed tonight. HUUUUUUUUUGE difference. The horn is so loud and clear. I didn't have to upgrade the 10Amp to anything higher either. Held the horn for short intervals, and lengthy intervals of around 10 or more seconds.

Installation is straight forward, plug-and-play. Its a bit tricky, because I did not remove the bumper and therefore was quite cramped for my hand space. It is very possible to get it done, just a bit awkward to hold the tools and your lighting while keeping the bumper pryed open. It can be done, just wear some rubber gloves and a long sleeve shirt or you will have sliced hands for sure!

Here are my pictures, a mini DIY, if you will. Pictures are labelled with notes. I didn't go into the intimate details such as unhooking the negative battery teminal, removing the stock horn, unplugging the stock wiring, and mounting the new pair, as I expect anyone can turn a ratchet. The wiring is simple, and can be followed easily by the pictures in the supplied instructions (the text is in Japanese).

For the wiring, basically you mount the 2 horns to the chassis with bolts. Then run a single grounding wire between the pair and attach each end of the ground wire to the bolt points of the chassis. Tighten each bolt.

Next you install the splitter to your factory feed. All plug-and-play ends. Simple. Reattach your battery and test. Put the bumper back on, and you are good to go!

I just wanted to say Thank You! I just used that tutorial to change my headlight bulb on my 2007 Yaris Hatch Back.

As I write this it is rainy and in the 30's and I do not have a garage. Glad I did not have to remove my whole Bumbper Cover and lay on cold wet pavement.
