Need (or want) a compact air horn?

[Smart Enuf]

I believe there's a size difference in the trumpet between the compact air horn and the ultracompact air horn. I installed the compact Stebel and had to cut a little bit out of the wheel well liner to get it to fit. No biggie, but it's something to think about.

Pull the front end off and mount it in front of the bracket, not behind. Tight fit, but it'll go and be vertical, too. I tried thru the fender well and spent a few frustrating hours trying to make it fit vertically. Pulling the front off is easy and takes less time (less painful, too) then fighting the fender liner. Go to evilution.co.uk for instructions.
See my write up under 'modifications' 'exterior' & "sticky tab" for new horn for the method I used to mount.

Well, should I get this one or get the Groits one then? Im worried about quality and if it will fit. I know the ultra-compact one will fit and I hear it is a good brand. Help me out here!

You can't go wrong with the Wolo Bad Boy

Not to worry, Jedi - once you open the package it will say "Stebel Nautilus" right on the horn. The WOLO Bad Boy is also a Stebel that has been rebadged. I personally was surprised to find this out, but I guess Stebel makes a LOT of horns and wholesales them to other vendors.
GO for it~! Great price, too - less than I paid for mine in May.

UNLESS you do like I did. I really loved just driving down the road making all types of noise just honking that bad boy. Finally it just blew out. I need to replace it....one more thing on my list.

It is the ultra compact one. Stebel Nautilus - Wolo Bad Boy - and a few other companies....all those are the same ultra-compact horn and start life as a Stebel Nautilus.

It just looked bigger than the ultra compact one from Italy.
