So my horn kinda sucks ass, to the point where people will walk in front of my moving car, and my horn doesn't even scare them out of the way.

The solution:

Motherflippin twin tone truck air horn. 139 motherflippin decibels - just enough to cause "serious damage to the human ear."

Ideal.

It came in a dodgy foreign looking box with no instructions:

Old vs new:

All fitted with a new relay:

It's huge! And loud as balls.

Awesome thread u got here mate!

Lovely mint 3G.
And that 4ws video was absolutely eye-opener - somehow i always thought the front AND back wheels turn the same direction! Little did i know!

Love the art work under the bonnet too!

Keep up the mods! :-)

Hey folks, quick update for y'all.

I've had an ongoing starting issue for months now, and after 3 new batteries and 3 alternators that didn't fit, I finally solved the problem with a big-ass 100Ah battery and a nice shiny reconditioned alternator:

I celebrated my car's fully working electric system by going out and buying this:

and this:

for a total cost of £26 :)

I then popped to carpet-right and managed to pick up this 6 metre roll of fluffy purple carpet for a tenner:

because why the hell not.

Then after lots of measuring, cutting, glueing and swearing, I made this:

Thanks for looking

Peace out

Thanks :)

Very loud, but it makes bits of the car vibrate a lot.

I think I need to get on the sound-proofing & vibration-dampening game soon
