    Just swap over the slip ring. It plugs right into the original harness on the car, however I think you need to remove one wire from the connector where it connects to the main harness on the car.

    Re: sei horn wire

    For the slip ring you need to have the steering wheel off. Then remove the two halves that cover the combo switch. You will see 4 screws holding the slip ring on. Remove the 4 screws and a ziptie and the slip ring comes right off.

    Re: sei horn wire

    Is the whole connector different or just that one has an extra wire?

    Re: sei horn wire

    Lol... I am 90% certain that the horn wire is the 3rd wire that doesnt plug in if you use the sei slip ring. I used the sei slip ring when putting my new steering wheel on, and I now have no horn.

    Re: sei horn wire

    the blue/red wire is separate from the other wires that plug in,that's the one for the horn.so the other plug is for cruise and radio controls.is this right?

    Re: sei horn wire

    You can just remove the extra pin on the connector and plug it in. Or, check to see if you can swap that part of the harness from the SE-i.

    The extra wire is for the audio controls, at least I think.

    Re: sei horn wire

    Aftermarket decks have their own amps. I am not sure on the output of the stock amp on the SE-i.

    The manual should have a diagram of what goes where.
