    Patrick, That looks nice. I just ordered two for my car.
    By the way, I was able to install wireless remote button to my steering wheel successfully. I just need to figure out where to attach two horns and a compressor.

    Great! I ran a new dedicated ground to the Ground buss, as well as a 12V connection (fused) directly from the battery to that buss. You'll love having these busses there when there is a need to add future electronics.

    I'd love to see that... I was thinking of doing it too - keeping stock on the stick and a fun horn on the wheel but couldn't figure out how to get a wire to the horn switch in the momo.

    EDIT: Ooops... should have kept reading before responding.

    I installed a Wolo "260-2T Mini But Loud" horn. $15 from Amazon. It's loud, small, cheap, easy to mount. I mounted one in the stock location on the driver's side, and taped off the wiring on the other side.

    Here's another dumb Question from me,
    I am hooking up an older horn but it has two wires. I guess one is positive which Hooks up to the Delorean plug and I would guess the other gets grounded to the frame or something right?

    Yes. The purple horn wire is +12v when the horn button is pressed. Ground the other side to the frame and you should be good.
