fitted new air horn

redzed · 13-08-13, 07:32 PM

my horns being playing up so i fitted an airhorn, much better than standard. It took a bit of working out to match in with my current system. Would it be helpful to put a how to up? if people want it i'll do it

How do you start them???

Can never find the stupid little thumb buttons.

Got two sets sitting in the shed, tempted to fit them.

Did see some multi air horns for £20 on ebay, but thought they were illegal.

Have to admit, i got my dad to wire them in for me, as i didn't have a clue.

Weren't dixie horns, as they are illegal to be the main horn on a modern car, but just a 2 tone pair.

These aren't the illegal ones just a 3 tone set. I'll get a video and put up the wiring diagram in the next few days

Have you put the horns where the standard horn is in the wing?

I put the ones on my R25, in the same place as the standard horn in the wing, but was tight just for a pair of horns.

So i'm just wondering where you put a triple set.

The best advised way for fitting airhorns, is to keep the tubing as short as possible, but obviously has to fit the car etc.
