Horn upgrade - WOW - KAZAKHSTAN

Post by ninja.turtle007 »

The horn was a little intermittent so whilst replacing the
wiring I fitted an air-horn i had swapped for an old alarm siren in Aktobe, Kazakhstan.

I used to wiki post on here, thanks Covkid. :ok

Now when any crazy driver here toots me, I blast them back!

It was you post a couple of years back that got me thinking.

I happened to have a relay in my spares box and used a horn that was available at the time.

I was told it's around 130 to 150dB! :lol:
