do you have to cut the cars electrical wiring harness to install these horns?

I used the relay and did not cut any of the original wires when I installed these. I used the original horn harness to trigger the relay. The original connection on my car was a simple press fit spade connector, so it was easy. If your car has a fancier connector it might be more difficult to avoid cutting some original wires.

assuming your talking about the horn wiring harness, yes you can cut it or disassemble the plug to get just the connectors. or you can buy a spare horn connector and wire the horns through that then it would be plug and play. but otherwise it is not plug and play.

Not necessarily. You can install the horns directly to the existing wiring. I did this as I have them on a motorcycle. They might not be as loud in a car though. They should actually be wired to a relay that allows full voltage/amperage to get to the horns and the actuation is via the original horn wiring. By the way, great horns, good sound.

Not at all...I just used the splice connectors and tied into the factory wires

Yes, these harnesses will allow you to plug straight in instead of cutting and stripping wires

Yes you can it's a little more time consuming you have to find the live wire on your steering column that is for your horn and splice into that. I believe the original instructions actually show you how to connect it to your stock horn

You should not have to splice any of the wires. All of them are "plug and play." If your signals are not working, just reverse the way the new plug is into the old tail light pigtail. I hope this helps.

No.. You have to buy the wiring harness seperation.. Only like 20 bucks or so more tho

Nope no welds or cuts needed. Its just a bolt on. Unless of course your civic for some reason had the old bolts that connect to the cat converter welded on, then you will have to cut the old pipe and grind off the three bolts. I bought the car used and am the third owner and for some reason or another somewhere down that line the bolts got welded on and I had to grind them off but that should NOT be the case. Once the old pipe was off though it was a simple and easy bolt on operation.

The hardest part will be fknding the location of the stock horn. From there you will have tqo options depending on yoir setup. You might be able to just plug and play or you might have to splice two wires. Simple and straight forward.

Yes, however you should consider disconnecting the original Horns since the additional load of the Wolo on the horn wiring will likely blow a fuse.

No it has no wiring harness you will have to use the hardware and wiring from the previous grille.

This horn can be connected with your original factory horn wires. Installation instructions are included. Thank you.

If you're replacing existing horns, you won't need to change anything as the OEM horns will already have a suitable fuse & relay. If you are adding these in addition to your existing horns, you will need to add a suitable relay. I replaced my OEM Toyota horns and these sound great just make sure you use the Hi & Lo note together. I was very happy with them.

Yea you need a converter from the cars wiring box to the radio you are going to install. Otherwise, you'll have to cut all wires and then connect directly to new radio wires.

Barb, you might need more wire, depending on where the horn is located. I had my original horn replaced (because now most car horns are weak) so additional wire was not needed.You will really like this horn.

I ended up having to cut and splice wires together due to not having enought length for install. I have a crew cab pickup truck and the only wires that I don't have to splice are the ones on the windshield, the ones in my grill and back window are spliced.

horns are universal. you should have no problem. as long as you follow the instructions and look up a relay diagram you'll be fine.

Depends on your exact situation. It could be as simple as replacing your old horns, that is plug and play. In my case I went from one weak squeeeeky horn to the pair of these. I needed about two feet of 18 gauge hook-up wire and three crimp-on wire terminals. These should cost about three or four dollars. I've been very happy with the horns themselves, they are louder and better sounding than the stock horn they replaced. I hope this helps.

You'll need to first see if and where there's space under the hood to install the unit. You'll also probably need to change your fuse to your horn to handle the higher current it pulls. And yes, you'll likely need to cut some wires, and get out your soldering iron
