As long as the current draw doesn't blow a fuse (20 amp yellow, shared with
a lot of accesories) or melt the insulation off the wire (18 guage good for
16 amp) you should be ok! I had an extra set of horns from my '62 Cadillac
parts car that I installed on the Dakota, now I have three horns. When I
HONK little cars their sheet metal vibrates :^)
