Has anyone any experience or recommendations please?
I assume fitting to the D4 will be similar, or identical to fitting to the D3, and that Robbie guide will be equally relevant.

The ones on MX5Parts are original, I ordered a Magnum off there recently to go on my motorbike.
If you run 1 magnum you probably don't need a relay and extra wiring, the current supply should be man enough. Almost as loud as the Naughty and a lot simpler to wire up.2018 1.5Ti Skoda Octavia - dull as f&ck

i'm looking to fit a Ring compact air-horn - which I've had for weeks but been toooo busy to fit it - but I want to wire it so it also sounds when the alarm sounds.
does anyone know the wiring details for the battery backed sounder ? it has 3 wires - presumably live, ground and trigger (which may be hold-off I suppose ?) but they're all black so couldn't spot which to connect to..

The wires to the battery backed sounder are a databus rather than a simple trigger. They can be used as a trigger for a horn instead, via a suitable CCF modification, as they were built with that option in mind (for other markets).
This is how I have mine configured, so that I have an alarm that can actually be heard, as well as texting me with the alarm event via the fuel burning heater control.
