Jarek - Does it play any special tunes?
 Seriously though, do you know how much current it pulls? With a bit of searching I found that some have a max current draw of 20 amps. So, if yours is the same you'll want to fuse for a bit more, like 25 amps. The next question is if you want the horn to be able to honk with the key off? If so, you need a source that is hot at all times. If not, a keyed source is needed. If you want it to honk at any time then you could get an accessory fuse holder and wire it to the battery. But if you want it to be keyed that's another issue since there is only one fused source of more then 20 amps, and that's your heater/Air Conditioning fuse and you don't want to use that. Anyway, let's see which way you want to go, meaning honk at any time or honk with the key on, before going further.

Jarek - First, instructions on posting pictures are here: Bullnose Forum/FAQ's. But I've copied the pic in for you - this time.
 And, looking at that pic I see that it includes a relay. So, you'll need a fuse and you can wire it this way: EDIT: You could get the switched power from the radio circuit. It is shown here, but is yellow/black.

Yes, the big terminal on the relay where the battery cable goes.
(See, I told you that the forum is better than emailing me. Steve responded while I was busy.

No. If you connect it there then the horn will only honk when you are starting the engine. Hook it to the terminal at the bottom where the positive battery cable connects.
