Default Location of the horn on 2013 Mazda5?

Wife complained the OEM horn on our 'new to us' 2013 Mazda5 is wimpy.
No big deal, I can install a horn... so I look under the hood and... uh...
So where is the horn?
Thanks in advance!


Found the link, no wonder I can't find it you have to remove the bumper!

It's easier to remove the bumper cover but not absolutely necessary.
I did much the same setup as MBE did, except I used a piggyback connector from the first horn to the second one, like this one.

Yeah, I was wondering if you can access the horn from below without removing the bumper?

It's possible to remove the lower splash shield and loosen the inner wheel house, then bend/fold it out of the way to access the cavity that houses the horn. But it is hard to see and you're liable to be scraping your arm on the edge of the plastic.
