From horn button to Toggle switch  Toggle switch routing power to either factory horns or relay trigger side.  From relay power side to angry horn. Of course you do have a fused power cable going to relay as well.   Flip switch to angry mode and display a toothy grin when mashing horn pad. 

I plan on getting a cattle horn and run an independent ciruit. I would use to motivate dimwits, entertain bystanders, and to commune with nature.
