Kevin,

Its a quick paint drawing, so please excuse the look...
But, what you need is a 3 pole, 2 position switch...easy hookup...one from
the relay to the middle "power" spot, and the other 2 will go to factory
horn and hella horn. Depending on which side the switch is throw will
determine which one you will hear. You will have to run 2 wires from each
horn through the firewall into the cab to accomplish this, but its the best
i could come up with.
