I got mine from ebay. I actually bought 2 and planned to double them
up. The install of one was so easy that I ended up only installing the
one.
Here are my install notes:
1. Remove the front grill
- six push tabs mount the top.
- 4 twist clips (2 on each side) mount the sides.
- 2 tabs hold the bottom of the grill to the bumper.
2. Unplug the oem horn.
3. Removed the nut that holds the horn to the mount, and remove the horn.
4. Drill out the mounting hole in the oem bracket so that the new Stebel bolt would fit through the hole.
5. Bolt the new horn in using the hardware provided by Stebel.
6. Plug in the Stebel horn using the existing OEM wiring.
7. Re-install the grill (see notes below) and turn off the beep function for the door lock on the key fob.
Notes~
Twist tabs:
- To remove the grill from the twist tabs holding the side of the
grill, Insert a screw driver into the slots of these tabs and twist 90
degrees and pull the grill forward.
- Prior to re-installing the grill, pinch the tabs on these tabs and
remove them from the truck. Re-insert the tabs into the grill.
Key fob beep function:
- The beep function will not work properly with this horn. If you do
not disable it you will only hear the sound of the horn relay clicking
instead of the horn itself.
Dual horns:
I did not install both horns for the following reasons:
- I was not confident that 2 horns would run properly
on the existing oem wiring.
- I live in Arizona and wondered if the additional horn would disrupt the air flow through the radiator.
- I didn't want to do the additional wiring to run the second horn.
Thoughts:
- The horn is pretty loud, but the frequency is fairly high. It would be nice to have a lower tone horn to go with it.
- No one will mistake it for a train or 18 wheeler horn.
- Pretty nice horn overall.
Good luck and send me a message if you have any additional questions,
Sterling.

I looked over the online install guide. Don't you need to upgrade the wiring and relay to provide the amount of power this horn needs?

I installed some of their horns on my truck. It sounds like you installed something similar to what I have. I was able to install them with out removing my grill, I have a pic in my gallery of where I have them installed. All the wiring was easy to do, Im thinking about upgrading to the Heavy Duty, bus horns.

Hey thedave, you have the same set up as me. Can you tell me where you got all your aftermarket stuff at? such as the air intake because i hate to say it but sometimes i want to put the gas pedal through the floor board. Is there anything i can do to gain just a bit more power?

I installed a Stelbel Nautilus on my motorcycle, and it required an external relay. You should see the scared looks on soccer moms faces when I lay on the horn when they start to move over on me.
