xkjnboix : 1993 Accord EX

[xkjnboix]

Work in progress. If you've never done one of these properly then you have no idea the amount of time and effort that goes into making one of these. I used a base of JB weld and some Bondo Butter on top. Probably worked about an hour each night for the past week on this.

Nice car. It reminds me a lot of Accordtunerx back in the day. Keep up the great work! You definitely inspire me to get back to work on my CB7s.

Cold weather killed my battery so i went with an Optima Redtop 25 Group/size
720 cca for 130$ shipped should be plenty for the cb7

Previous battery was at least 5 years old to my knowlege iDk when the previous owner of my prelude purchased it.

I plug and played it first. The Hellas from the BMW were working off a positive switched setup. I made a simple relay harness with inline fuse ( which i can replicate and post details ) to convert the cb7's negative horn signal to positive because all cars are now set up this way, hence louder horns.
Also by running it strait off the battery which is literally 1.5ft from the passenger horn, this also takes any risk of blowing the STOP HORN fuse which would disable the brake lights,its simply more reliable.

I understand y honda made it ground switched for safety, but as far as powering the horns it creates an inferior ground for the horns. That's like having your amp for your subs with the battery in the trunk with the ground coming from the radio. Short ass positive lead and long ass negative lead.... its one of those things that's not reversible

BAUSSS! Was it plug n play? Or was wiring involved?

[xkjnboix]

Pussy OEM horns replaced with Hella horns from a BMW

Experiment data was recorded under identical control conditions.
