Mine are nice and loud, but certainly wouldn't survive a without some electrical tape on the connectors.

Sorry I didn't mean to be so blunt but got called away from the pc Embarassed ...check thatboth sounders are operating ..the easiest way to do this is to pop off the front grill and check the connections and get somone to sound it for you (disclaimer: may cause hearing damage...wear "muffs" Wink )

I thought horn size mattered, not horn volume! I guess my catholic upbringing has confused me!

Grill removal is simple - there are 6 clips to press in - see this pic from Catweasel:

It's the ability of the sound to 'penetrate' rather than the horn size Shocked

I thought the ability to startle people and make their eyes pop out was the aim of a good horn!!!!!

And where can I buy some of those stick-on yellow arrows for the front of my Disco? They look so cool!

OK DG, I'll go and iron a shirt for the morning and leave the sensible people to commune!!

Dug Thumbs Up
