This is the final install.  Do I need to weather protect that relay?   And if so, what's the best way? 

I have liquid electrical tape that I can slather on if that's the best method.

PS - I took out the stock horn and used a relay to install a horn from NAPA autoparts.  $18, about 132 decibels (according

to packaging), and I figured if it's from a parts store, it's good enough for a car.  Good enough for a car, good enough

for a bike.  Also, I hate messing up stock wiring, so I used POSI-TAPS all over the place so I could leave the stock wiring

up in case I wanted to go back to stock.

Central Maryland		You'll probably be OK since the connectors are wrapped in a plastic sleeve, but it wouldn't hurt to apply the liquid tape anyway.

Rockford, IL		I'm going on three years with mine installed similar to yours, right out in the weather. And no problems yet.
