I have some Italian air horns in my Sprite and a chinese air horns in my 
daughter's Sprite. Both do NOT use a relay even though a relay came in 
the package.
People on this list have explained relays to me but I still like the old 
battery to switch to device way just like they did at the Sprite 
factory. No relays that never belonged in a Sprite.
Anyway, I have and have had several air horns (1 was a 3 horn set) in 
cars over the years, no relays.
If your horn draws 18 amps, be sure to have at least a 20 amp fuse.
The horn is (supposed to be ) the only thing on the fuse in all Spridgets.
