Hella horns install help

Hello CSS.net,
I bought hella super tones because they look badass and the stock cobalt horn screams how gay you are. So I'm gonna do the swap. My issue lies in the fact that the battery is in the trunk. How would I wire the horn relay to the battery if the battery is in the trunk? I could go from the jump pin but how would I hold it there? Any help is appreciated. Wiring seems to be a bit of an unknown to me because the battery is back in the trunk. Thanks!

They are definitely a mostly Subaru thing. But they are installed on other cars. Not a dbag though

You need to build a relay harness and a good mounting bracket. Not the cheap tabs they include.

You! I need you. I saw your post. It inspired my location. I was going to use their brackets. Good to know they suck! Where did you mount the brackets? How on the frame? Bolts into the rad support? And wiring harness, I bought 14 gauge automotive wire, waterproof spade connectors, and terminal connectors. I have 90 degree connectors I plan on using for the horns and the regular spades for the relay. Where did you shove it all? How do you work with the stock horn wires?
