Relocated the horns on my 850 last night

How to go faster, stop quicker, and turn harder. Chips, exhaust, larger turbos, bigger/slotted/drilled rotors, high performance brake pads, manual boost controllers, performance shocks/struts/springs, airbox mods and more! Also discussion on HID and Xenon lights, aftermarket foglights and other exterior lighting.

There are several places to relocate them to, and the wires are generously long to reach wherever you choose. Remember to aim them down so water drains out.
