Just wondered if this horn will fit as a 'plug and play' swap to a standard horn on the GTS? I appreciate to fit the pair you'd need two mount bolt points, and have to split the wiring to 2 x pairs of spade connectors, rather than the single pair on the standard horn. These are less than half the price of a Stebel, which I know GTS owners rate...

Kinda hard to say without any measurements on the horns. Assuming you cannot separate the two horns, it would be a very fought fit. The stock horn spot isn't super large. But off behind the left knee pad there is a ton of room. So if you can separate the two horns, put one in the stock spot, and the other behind the left knee, you could fit them both. Not sure what that would do to your sound though. Personally, slap them puppies on your front rack and go MOD style lol.

The existing horn does not have a relay. It is known that the stock horn can be replaced with a single high powered horn without having to use a relay. However, I would expect that two larger, high draw, horns will require a relay.

That is no big deal, but you have to understand how it works to put a relay in the circuit. See the instructions for installing the Stebel Nautilus horn which requires a relay.

Hi Paul
Having removed the stock horn, I'm doubtful that it'll fit.. as okcgravity says it's pretty tight in there.

On the other hand, I know this fits nicely behind the left knee pad
