Abysmal Horn

[Stephen Vaughan]

I have a new GR sport hybrid and the horn is abysmal to say the least, is there an upgrade which can be fitted without  harming the warranty?

[FROSTYBALLS]

Not as far as I'm aware. Fitting a different horn would just mean that part/installation is not covered by the new car warranty.

There are aftermarket horns that come with a compatible connector, so that you can fit them without modifying the wiring. Hella make some. In my case, I fitted twin tone horns, which obviously required a second connection, so I did splice into the existing wire. I'm not losing any sleep over it.

Hi Stephen, I agree with you.  I hardly ever use the horn but when I do it’s good if people can actually hear it.  I was parked in a petrol station the other day and an old Merc started backing up toward me, sure it was going to smash into my bumper, I hit the horn for the first time and driver of other car didn’t hear it, luckily he stopped a few inches from me.  I fitted dual Hella horns off Amazon for £18 and bought the Ecsing Y harness to connect them for £11.  Best money I’ve spent on the car, took me 5 minutes to fit and they sound like a car horn now not a moped.
