I have read all the posts concerning the need for a relay with the mighty Stebel horn, to maximize power to the horn and reduce the load on the wimpy stock horn switch. However, I am going with the less-powerful PIAA Sports Horn.

All of the materials from PIAA indicate that the horn is designed to be swapped for the stock horn without any additional wiring (i.e., a relay). I really, really want to do this myself, just to prove that I can, but I fear that a relay will defeat me and send me to the shop with my little bag of parts in hand.

So, my question is, can I just extend the stock horn wires to the inside left front fairing where my PIAA will nestle, given the PIAA's reduced requirements compared to the Stebel?

No information on the PIAA site, but lots of conflicting information on the interwebs (what are the odds?).

No one pegs it at more than 10, and some were advised by PIAA customer support that it was less than 5.

As I understand it, the Stebel draws 18.
