Who's changed their horns in their cars.

I was talking to Corsa_x_15 at hemel and his horn sounded like a BMW or other german horn, really nice. He said you just take the old horn out and put a new one in.

Is this easy to do? And i've got a corsa C so is it hard to actually find it?

Also does anyone know how much a new horn would cost, i know that the horns out of astra's and omega's sound nice and deep, i also get a discount off vauxhall parts

Yeah, i know what the horn looks like, my dad runs a driving school and i've seen them on the Corsa B's. But i haven't seen it on my Corsa C.

Do you have any idea how much a horn would cost?

My horn is knackered i hate to use it cos it sounds a bit gay, horns are pretty much universal might just need to drill new mounting holes on the horn

i changed mine for an air horn a year ago.

its a a bit of a bastard to get to the old horn as its mounted right down behind the bumper at the bottom of where the radiator is mounted on the car.

have fun!!

They changed the noice of the indicators at 52 plate on the corsa c, Y reg - 52 made a crap noise, now its better.

I've seen where the horn is located on the Corsa C now and it don't look too bad.

I just need to know the rough cost of a horn now, what can it be £15 ? £25 ?
