Horn Replacement

Does anyone have any recommendations? Have an R56 Mini Cooper S and the horn stopped working. Fuse is ok and you can hear the replay click when trying to activate the horn so I figured it’s the horn itself.

Got a pair of new Hella horns and the site said it should fit, but as I was replacing them, I realized it did not come with the correct connectors (pig tails) and am having a hard time finding this online.

Anyone have any suggestions? Thank you!

Update: these are the horns purchased from ECS Tuning

ECS didn’t have the pig tails I was looking for, but fortunately, Amazon to the rescue.
