  • 2010 gxl horn replacement ??

    As much as I love my 150, I'm starting to develop a complex with the horn sounding less like a 2t beast, and more like a Barina...(not that there's anything wrong if you drive a Barina)

    Has anyone done a 'simple' switcheroo with a horn that (1) straight over the counter type (2) sounds a bit beefier and (3) uses the existing wiring, etc...If so, what horn did you use ?

    Cheers

    I thought the same thing when I first got my 2013. My misses laughed when she first heard the tiny horn. What ever happened to the old air horns?

        Go the Steibel compact nautilus in parallel, you get the half second delay with the wimpy horns first then the "get the hell out of my way a*hole", took them off my 120 have haven't had a chance to fit them to the 150 yet.

            It was a few years ago but I believe they're all the same, just ask the parts guy at the local holden dealer.

            IIRC the +ve fits straight on and I made a new -ve for each. There is no relay or extra wiring required.
