Easy to assemble, difficult to connect relay

I am using a Form C relay with this automotive and security wiring harness. For example, I use two in my car to activate a very loud compact aftermarket motorcycle air horn when my car's weak factory horn doesn't match: a relay is activated when the horn button is pressed to provide new 30A To supply power with a built-in fuse to the relay output where the second relay toggles between the factory horn and the new horn. The first relay is switched to the original horn by the factory supply of the wiring harness, which no longer feeds the horn; only the NO relay output is used. The second relay switches this new stronger horn between the OEM car horn that uses the NC output of the relay and the new horn that uses the NO output of the relay; The control signal for this relay is the high beam power wire, which is located near the installation site of the sound signals. This results in the OEM horn being used by default, particularly when sounding from the remote door lock/unlock system and during normal use. On an open freeway, when the high beams are on, or elsewhere when the steering column light control is rotated toward the driver, the horn will sound, providing a quick way (with practice) to get the attention of a distracted neighbor. the driver (or whoever is "listening in”) on their 1kW car audio system if they would otherwise keep changing or veering into my lane and causing a collision. the main security panel can handle. Therefore a 12V relay is required. In some cases the fact that it is a Form C (ie normally open and normally closed) relay connector allows power to be passed between controlling an external siren/light in to switch to an alarm condition. , and also enable powered sensors such as
