    Default Horn Doesn't work

    So when i got my car the horn was ****ed, it wouldn't work, that's when i found the fuse was missing. As soon as i put it in the horn went off.

    I took it back to the dealership who sent me to the mechanic who told me to take it to some other people who deal with the electronics and wiring in cars. Took it there guy spend 2 hours and said he needs the car for like a week to fix it.

    I however didn't trust these people anymore (dealer, mechanic or these guys) and took my car back and fixed everything else myself. But can't do that for the horn

    I however was thinking to get the Hella Horns people keep talking about to deal with the retards on the road. and if there is a problem with the horn lines, would it be easier to just take that out completely and put in a new horn instead of trying to track the problem?

    If not who would you guys recommend to take this issue to?

    Just get the Hella Horns. You don't even need your stock horn hooked up to run the Hella's.

    Also, just take your car to Jimmy at Street Performance.

    The horns in these cars are garbage. Not sure why you'd wanna use it anyways.

    No idea... I am not an electrical/wiring guy at all, but I know you can run Hella's independant to your stock horn, or keep both. Someone else should be able to answer the impact to your alarm, if any.
