The G37 PS cooler is bigger. You might be able to find a cheap upgrade from a salvage yard.

Came home, ate, cut grass, ate again. Was going to build a fire outside in my cowboy grille and chill with a cold Henry's. Just too tired, and the bugs are biting.

It's suppose to rain all weekend.

I just need to figure out how I wire up the old horns to the new relay. The fact that there are two OEM horns and only one replacement horn is throwing me a bit. There is a wire in/out for each horn. I know where they are supposed to go on the relay. But can I just wire both of them to the relay? The instructions are pretty generic and only refer to a single existing horn.

I used some wiring loom cover from Advanced Auto when I did my diff cooler install.

You're saying that the old horns have 2 wires. Power and ground? The new horn has how many wires?

Since you already have things apart. Why not do the PS mount. Why take things apart twice.

For the PS cooler. I installed the Z1 cooler years ago. Still going good.

For replacing the radiator. There is nothing out there.

You know how many cfm the stock fans are? You could replace the fans and end up with cfm. Which would be a step backwards. I would install hood vents first.

Correct. New horn is the same with an included relay. The two wires from the existing horn connect to this relay. My question has to do with the fact that there are two OEM horns. Do I connect the wiring from both of the old horns to the new relay or can I just abandon the existing wiring from one of the old horns? Or do I need to rewire some other way?

No wonder I gave up on electrical engineering after one semester. This is pretty basic stuff, and I still have no idea what I'm doing lol
