Default Classic horn

Hey just thought I'd show you guys some pics on a new and improved horn I just put on. It was actually quite easy, I just got a needle nose pliers and pulled the wires off the clip of the old horn then attached it to the new horn. I bolted the new horn onto the frame on the left at the front using the existing bolt there. I think it looks great..but I did notice the drain hole for the horn is now not on the bottom and its impossible to turn the horn around unless i lengthen the wires. I was wondering if I could drill a small hole on the horn underneath now if I was careful?

Hey Bodie - Is that thing any louder than the wimpy OEM horn? I've thought about upgrading my horn after a close call the other day when a cager didn't seem to see or hear me.

Its louder than the stock and doesnt sound as wimpy..its a bit deeper but not sure how it compares to the oem. I got it cos i wanted a louder horn too but i really like its looks as well. Its not an airhorn but I'm hoping not to have to use it for anything other than hellos and goodbyes.
