|  How to install new Horns
First you must remove the drivers side headlight. To remove the headlight first remove the four pull tab holding the front bumper cover to the top core support this will give you room to mover the headlight for removal. There are 2 bolts that hold the headlight in remove those they are in the picture below. 
Then you have to wiggle the headlight out by lifting up the bomper cover at the top and pulling the headlight forward. Pop of electrical connection on the back side of headlight. 
Next remove the headlight mount. This requires 4 bolts to be removed 2 on core support and 2 on lower part of the mount. The bolts are circled in yellow.  
Then you can remove the mount from the car to fully expose the current horn. Next remove the nut holding the horn on and then pop off the electrical connection on it. 
On the plug for the horn cut the wires off flush with the plug. 
Next you will need some horns or horn these are the ones I bought cost $20. 
After removing them from the package you will find hardware in the package for mounting and some connectors. I used two connectors and made two for the connection to the factory wire. 
Because I am using dual horns I had to connect the wires together I used solderless connectors for this. 
Then connect the wires to the factory wires use the black wire to black wire and red to Green wires. 
Then using the mounting hardware to connect the horns to the factory mount in the car and connect the wires to the horns the same for both horns. 
Then check to make sure they are working properly if so great. Now you can put the headlight mount and head light back in so just reverse the removal process.
And enjoy a decent horn!
