99.99% sure the Wolo Bad Boy is the exact same horn as my Stebel. I pulled the compressor off and stuck it under my left side cover. Horn assembly then squeezes into the stock cover. It's a very tight fit but it will go in. Zip tied it in for good measure. Need a little clear tubing and a brass fitting that I expoxied into the horn assembly. Spent about $5 at Home Depot to complete the install.

IMHO, there is no horn that will "plug & play" into the stock HD wiring and achieve a desired effect.
The OEM wiring was meant to fire an electric horn. For noticeable increased volume, you will need a compressor driven horn. One option is the Stebel Nautilus compressor air horn. This is an inexpensive mod (less than $50) that will sound like a pissed off 1970's Cadillac and blow your HD electric horn off the map.
The actual horn bellows will fit under the stock cowbell and the compressor can be mounted in an alternate location.
You will need to install a direct wired relay which in turn will utilize the OEM wiring and horn button to fire the compressor.
I’m sure that if you do a search here on HDF, that someone here has fully documented this simple mod.
If you can’t find the information here, then here is a link to another good “how to” with pics.

Does anyone have any experience with the Stebel Magnum Harley Replacement Horn--Electromagnetic? I found it online at BikerHiway.com. It sells for $17.95 and reportedly puts out 136 decibels. This horn fits inside the stock Harley "cowbell" horn as a true plug and play replacement. Here's a link to a picture.
