1st off , I'm not knocking these , I'm just passing on what I found.

Had a tinker and can confirm the following -

-They aren't both 500htz (high pitched one's) as suggested on other forums.I have a low 300htz and a high 500htz as it's supposed to be.
-They are German made as they are supposed to be , as other versions are said to be a higher tone as suggested on other forums.
-The wiring etc is all correct as per info earlier in this thread.

I think they just sound "different" and will take getting used too. I had airhorns before so not sure what origional horn sound was like. If you sound them individually , the 300htz sounds like a standard car horn , and the 500htz sounds like a clown car :-D. Just a pitty they didn't swap the 500 for a 100 or 200 (not that I know what that sounds like)

As I say , I'm happy enough , they just sounded different than I expected !

Attempted to fit mine today and come across an issue, the left side where the power steering cooler is even with the bracket removed and the cooler pushed back the horn will not fit, the fins on the cooler are in the way.
Backed out and put back to standard, need to think of plan "B"

Ideas/surgestions please, do not want to remove or modify any part of the car so another location it may have to be??

Take the bracket off the right side of the cooler fins , bend it more than it is as standard , put it back on backwards (pushes the fins back towards the rad) and give the bracket at the left side a wee twist bacwards (helps a bit).

The horn "fits" but it's more squashed in than anything. The grill just clips in and no more , when I took mine off to tinker I noticed the fins on the cooler were squashed a bit , but I'd rather that than have it contacting the rad.

Alternatively you can fit them both to the right (look at Jura's) but I'm all about symmetry.

Could anybody please help with this diagram?
I have 2 original fitted ( stock) horns in my Blobeye so where it says 'wire from stock horns' would I take an extension of both wires to original horns and fit them both to the same point on the relay?
Thanks
