Default New horn mod

Ever since I bought my S2000 I've been wanting to replace the stock horns
with a more powerful, more noticeable and something that would make
someone pay attention to me when I honk that darn thing. Now we all
know that the S2000 stock horn sounds more like the ones in a Honda civic so I was
encouraged make this modification.

Here is the result of a lazy Sunday afternoon modification on my car.



Man, that thing is sooooo loud.

Adding aftermarket horns on S2000's before the duals came out is almost a must. If you can't be seen all the time, at least you should be heard.
I installed a set of dual Fiamm Hiway Blasters years ago - 125 db, Crappy Tire.

What's involved in doing this? Just wire them in series?

Have to remove the front bumper to get at them, or can you just remove the plastic shield underneith?

I'm thinking of installing an 04 Accord horn.

The '04 S2000 horn is much improved over the previous model years... it's probably a direct swap, too.

I bought a horn at crappy tire today, spent about an hour squeezing my hands inside that little hole. I don't know if it's louder or not I think it is. I bought the 132db one for $26.99.

Fit right in, only thing is I had to cut the OEM plug and solder on the ends.
