taz24 Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 (edited) Do you want it to replace you original horn or do you want it as well as the orriginal to be used on different occasions? If you want to replace your original horn assuming the two are similar in power consumption, you could just swap new for old (power consumption will be wrote on the back of the horn probabaly somthing like 12v 5w) As long as the klaxon is not too large (power wise) it will swap. If you want it to run aswell as the horn you will need to fit it and install a selector switch to your dashboard so you can select the horn or the klaxon and thenwhen you ress the horn button it sounds the one you selected. If you need futher advise let me know taz Edited February 12, 2008 by taz24 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter Posted February 12, 2008 Report Share Posted February 12, 2008 I have always had a dream to fit a propper Truck horn to my car. Scare the living *** out of irresponsible road users.
