Ignore them....

On every car I have removed/replaced the horn on I have found it to be EXTREMELY simple.

1) Pop open the hood.
2) Locate the horn (usually located just behind the front bumper).
3) Remove the wired clip that runs from the horn.
4) Unbolt the horn.
5) Bolt new horn on.
6) Clip the wires into place.
7) Close hood.
8) Have the pesky neighbor put their head in front of the bumper so you can insure that it works properly!

ROFL

If you need any help with it, feel free to PM or IM me. Best of luck!!

*I forgot to mention, step #8 is optional; if you choose to skip this step be sure to test the horn anyways*

yeah, most horns usually have only a ground and power wire connnection, when you hit the steering wheel it grounds the wire and the horn goes on. The only thing to check is power, if the ferrari horns use more power then the nissan horn, it might blow the fuse. You might have to put in a stronger fuse, at worst case you would have to use the relay, but any install place should be able to do it cheaply.

yeah, that's a typical automotive 12v relay. 2 leads are for switching it on off, the other two is to put a ground or a power source to the device.
