New horn

Installed the WOLO BadBoy horn today and I like the 128dB at 10'. Process took somewhere between 2 & 3 hrs, really didn't keep track.

To make the horn vertical I fabricated a new strap in which the bolt holes were 30mm further apart that the factory strap, works perfectly. My nephew and I removed the front panel to make it as easy as possible. The directions from MR SMART and FQ101 made the process a whole lot easier....Thanks guys.

Amazon sells a Fiamm low-tone horn that looks to be almost identical to the Bosch low-tone horn that the dealer sells. I just ordered one for about $13, so we'll see how it works when it comes in. I have red panels to install on the car, so the front end will be coming off one way or another.

wondering how this worked out, i was thinking of ordering a second factory horn from the dealer but they are $50 or so.

thank you.
