I will let you know.
The wire you are using for power (the one that powered the stock horn) is connected to a 15amp fuse in the fusebox. That fuse also governs the brake lights, so if you use both at the same time the increased load could blow the fuse. If this happens then you need to install a relay with a 20 amp fuse to correct it, and use the stock horn power wire as the relay switch. A separate power wire would be needed to actually power the horn. This will continue to let the steering wheel control the horn, rather than a switch installed in the car somewhere.
