Depends on how complicated you want to get. It's very simple to remove the stock horns and connect the Hellas - you'll need a couple electrical items (clips, wire) from an auto store, but that's all. If you want the full effect of the horns, you'll need to run power from your battery. And if you don't like the "staggered" positioning of the horns, you'll need to do some customization.

Hey guys! The time has come. I recently installed the hella supertones yesterday with great help by Tommy at Musicbox.
1. Popped open the hood, removed the front panel to get to the horns.
2. Unscrewed the horns easily, and replaced it with the supertones.
3. Positioning was way off at its stock position since our horns already have an uneven look.
4. Removed my front grille, resprayed the mesh grille due to rock chips to get the solid black color.
5. Removed the front L emblem.
6. Rewired, grounded the supertones and did some minor bending of the metal in order to position the supertones at its best place.
7. The supertones are not 100% even when it comes to measurements, but looking from a good 5-10 feet away, the position of it looks decent enough to call it even.
8. I was never able to install the accelerator pedal for my aluminum sports pedal, and finally got help from Tommy. (very tough job for something so little).
As you can see, the stock horns are misaligned, and sorry for the bad pic quality.
