I'm going to fit two FIAM 12c DC horns (similar to those shown below) to my lambretta, which has been converted to DC and has a battery and inline fuse on the battery earth.
However, do I need to include a 12v DC relay switch?
Thanks
Paul

Looking at how my horn/light switch cables are getting chewed to bits by the throttle and clutch wheels and gear change housing... I would not want to take a heavy duty cable from the battery up to the switch housing and back to the horns in case it got shorted out somewhere.
