Hi mate, go for a pair of hella supertones.. 10x better than the oem horn

See them just through the grill depending where you mount them.

Don't fall for the cheap fake ones on eBay, buy genuine for a few quid more

From what I remember yes they were easy to fit as they come with wiring and instructions.

Mine are mounted just behind the front grille badge and to the left and the right so the 'hard' part was making a bracket for them.

I've got PIAAs and they were easy to fit.

I used the original center mount for the right horn and there was a matching hole on the other side of the center strut that I used for the left horn. You can feed both horns from the original right horn feed, but if you're going to remove the second horn from the offside front then you can pick up a feed from here and run a wire to the second horn.

Tip... You can get to this horn through the side vent in the bumper if you aren't removing the bumper, but you'll need to remove the grill to get to the centre horn, which is held in place by 6 screws 4 of which are a challenge to get to with the bumper on, but it is possible!

I originally left the bling PIAA stickers on the horns, but after a year I didn't like the look so removed the stickers so they are now just black and blend into the grill and radiator.
