Update on the Wolo 619 Mad Max air horn, Reply from tech...
Ok to use factory wires & relay as it will be rated at 15 amp or better. The 619 draw is just under 15 amps, so do increase the fuse for horn up to 20 amps.
Lots of Jeep guys do this with no problems encountered after upgrading fuse.
The twin stock horns that you have on the Jeep is no problem disconnect both sets of wires, and tape off one set, and use the other set /Pos/Neg to your new 619 Wolo.
Done-Enjoy!!

I'm sick of the snow, but I haven't really done a whole lot of shovelling the year. It'* great only having to worry about a parking spot Usually the snow will be melted by the time I get out to clear it, so I only have the mess the plow pushes up to clear.

I went out and purchased another 2000 Pontiac Bonneville SSEi. I sold Black Betty 3 months ago and couldn't live without my Bonneville so I bought another. It is a project car I paid $1000 for it so time to start spending money

I'll post pics this weekend. The Body is in awesome condition, the motor is another story however. I purchased the car with intentions to build an engine for it. The previous owner had the rod and main bearings replaced without turning the crank. So I'm open for suggestions for a rebuild. I definitely want to beef the engine up. The suspension will need a little tune up also. But I'm ready for the makeover.
