Default escos horn? plz help

i just bought an escos recently and it has the horn removed so i want to sort it out today,ive been under the car a miniute ago, ive got hanging two single wires on there own, and a another two wires next to each other in a loom connector. so i'm puzzled? its the easist thing but as i never removed them, and don't have them, i don't know what it looked like, im guessing there was two horns on a bracket and the two single wires are the lives for each horn and the bracket is earth? , the other two wires maybe for something else?


cheers

The bracket is the earth and the two single wires (yellow with red stripe IIRC) are for the twin horns.

Mine were both knackered when I got the car, and someone had bodged a single Halfords special on there - it sounded like Noddy's car - nice.

Anyway - I binned that crap and fitted the twin horns from a Mk5 Ghia from the breakers. They're the same as the cossie ones and a lot cheaper than buying them from Ford.
