Wiring Question?
I'm installing a Rivco Air Horn. I'm going to use 14 gage wire one all connections from the battery to the relay and compressor, just to make sure I get good draw to the compressor. What gage would any of you recommend to use going to the original hornwires. They appear to be about 18ga? Remember this is only needed to trip the relay.

Wiring Question?
I'd use more of the 14 gauge if I had plenty.

Wiring Question?
I've got plenty of both. I feel more at ease with the 14, it seems easier to crimp and to make connections. I'm running a 15amp fuse and I believe 14 gage is rated for 20 amps or higher so I'm sure the fuse will blow before there's and wiring issues....
