Bit of an odd question

I'm bored of my standard horn. I have got one in the garage off a ford mondeo but there is only one connection for a live feed and another to be earthed to the car, but the corsa horn wiring has 2 lives? can i still use it somehow? or get a horn off another car.

Thanks

The Corsa horn that sounds like a wet fart has 2 wires connecting to it. I got myself a Steble Nautilus horn and simply disconnected the 2 wires from the original, and connected them to the pos and neg and it worked perfectly.

What reg mondeo is your horn off?

My Mondeo horn had two groups of two wires.

One group was connected to the alarm and one was connected to the horn button.

I taped up one end as it wasnt needed for the alarm.

The other end I just connected to the existing wires left by the old horn. Its in my project thread somewere.
