Chickenfarm Turbocharged March 10, 2016 Share March 10, 2016 The Stebel Magnum 2 horn in my previous Nissan Latio worked well for nearly 10 years and was still working well even when I scrap the car....never had a problem with it from day 1. I may have to change my Vezel horn soon for this old but good model, Mine worked all the way till scrapped +1 for Stebel in a Vios, I also used it till scrap, worked perfectly. Are you kidding? The only times I've used my horn have been in SG. I've almost never honked any vehicle up North. Because they generally know how to drive up there. Later Farhan take your post somewhere else to try and stir nationalistic tension again ↡ Advertisement 4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ElisaGrace March 21, 2016 Share March 21, 2016 (edited) If you wire a relay to your horn it becomes powerful. The OEM harness runs the horn power through a mile of wiring and a dozen different connections until it gets to the horn switch. There are lots of places for voltage drop. With a relay, you use the OEM wiring to power the relay and then put in new wiring for the horn. The relay uses a small amount of power (the original switch circuit) to turn on and off a bigger amount of power (the new heavier wire) to the horn. This is true for bigger headlights or any other higher-current-draw accessories you want to add to your motorcycle. https://www.yourmechanic.com/cars/toyota.

Happily1986 5th Gear May 8, 2016 Share May 8, 2016 I am eyeing the Hella D80S from tmall actually. What I do understand is that the best combination is like the D80S package, 1 low tone and 1 high tone. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SGCMlycan 1st Gear May 19, 2016 Share May 19, 2016 Wow 125db. Louder than hella supertone 118db Can pass LTA? Nope. Cannot pass. I believe 118db is no longer loud enough as car soundproofing is getting better. Combine with a decent stereo, I barely hear the 118db horn. :( Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
500KP 1st Gear May 28, 2016 Share May 28, 2016 Hi everyone, has anyone changed their car horn recently from Autotrend or autobacs? For those who have done so, what's the current price like for horn purchase + installation? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark 5th Gear September 25, 2019 Share September 25, 2019 I change to bosch at e-rev. Good workmanship and highly recommended. At highway speed, u won't feel anything is too loud. Just dun press the horn fully when there are pedestrians around. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thanks! You want Merc/BMW sound alike can get the Hella Twin Tone Horn Red. If you want something louder, get the Hella Super Tone Disc Red. Both can do at Vim Auto or E-REV. Cheers.

It was long ago when I change it for my previous car. I think cost is $60-80. Probably under $100 with installations. Better to call them up to check prices. Depending on your car, the horn installation could need to down bumper. E-REV would charge labour to down bumper depending on your negotiation skills with the boss.
