thanks for nothing lowes

Did another stupid little mod to the Insight tonight while working in the garage replacing Jen's headlight. Picked up another horn that has a lower tone to add to the existing one, that way when I honk it's a little more than an imitation of the road runner. I thought about putting in an air horn, like i've done before, but decided against it. The credit for the idea goes to Jackmpg's posts in the Insight forum. So I took some pic's, following jackmpg's directions was simpler than anything, the hardest part I had was finding a spade connector in the mess I call a garage. I used 18 awg lamp wire......hey, it's what I had around and it's not like anyone's gonna see it. I mounted it by the front, but also because it's the only place the included brackets would fit:

Then here's the fuse box:

And the hack job I had to do to get the wire to fit:

He forgot to mention that he dropped a piece of my headlight (a retention ring) down into my car. He had to take apart my air filter so I could squeeze my wittle hand down into an unknown cavity to reach it! It probably added 30 minutes on to work time!
