Now my everyday driver is a little less embarrassed behind the wheel

This year I bit the bullet and bought a small hatchback (which will remain nameless) as I couldn't justify pouring premium gas into a huge truck , just to commute to and from work. I can live with a cheap plastic interior, a tin radio, incredibly thin tires with cheap hubcaps. But, horrifyingly, it's impossible to blast your horn in anger just to hear the "beep-beep" coming from under the hood. With this easy-to-install horn pack, I no longer have to sit behind a slow-moving car or duck behindโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Hands-free operation
Cons
  • Some little things

These are excellent replacement horns for weak regular horns. However if you are using the supplied relay for a 2 wire installation do not follow the diagram in the packaging. I'm an engineer by training and instead of questioning Fiamm's paper schematic, I hurried and installed things according to the schematic because the manufacturer knows best, right? NOT CORRECT! As stated in several reviews on this product (which I only read after 2 days of fiddling with this installation which shouldโ€ฆ

Easily replace your weak Sprinter horn with El Grande!

The El Grande twin horns were fairly easy to convert to my 2015 Mercedes 4x4 Sprinter Van ("The Beast"). The standard faint horn is located behind the front grille, which you must remove to access the area. One of the two replacement horns fits in the same spot, and I installed the other lower behind the bumper so the horn doesn't collect water and get in the way of the grille or transmission cooling system. (See photos.) I read in another review that sirens draw only 8 amps, so you can plugโ€ฆ

Pros
  • GOLS certified
Cons
  • Mostly fine, but...

Good value for money! Can be used with 1-wire or 2-wire OEM settings.

You can preview how these horns sound on YouTube, but they mostly sound like a domestic car. The horns are always grounded and powered by the horn button. These horns draw less than 10 amps. So they can be "plug and play" for cars that have a wire attached to their OEM horn and if they already use a 10 amp or larger fuse on their horn. However, as Robotic says, you CAN use these horns on vehicles that have two wires connected to the factory horn with the supplied relay. Fiamm describes thisโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Very good price
Cons
  • So-so

This is an amazing upgrade for Toyota!

Bought to replace my whiny Toyota horn. After years of frustration with my car horn sounding more like a squeak than a horn, I googled for a solution. There is a lot of information out there and I have realized that I am not alone. That's probably what brought you here. Installation was a little more difficult than I had imagined. Access. I didn't have easy access to the horn because of all the plastic guards and the bumper assembly. I chose to work through the small cutout rather than removing

Pros
  • Weight
Cons
  • Availability for exchange
