Default Is it April 1st already?

I'm just searching for a pair of new horns to replace the silly, peep, peep thing on my 940 and I've come across these https://www.amazon.co.uk/Fiamm-92769...021977&sr=8-25
that look like quality ones, assuming they're not chinky knock offs, of course. It looks as if they may have a dual purpose in some parts of the world though as the advert incorporates the following:

Safety Warning
Do not use for petrol. This product does not meet UK legal requirements for petrol storage containers.
!!!!

Perhaps the claxon makes a spark rendering the product dangerous to use near petrol fumes?
Plus, any budget translation of a warning is going to sound funny.

It may be on Amazon but it's a company selling via Amazon, I'd guess that in their range of products is something which might be able to be used to hold petrol but shouldn't be, and they forgot to delete the disclaimer from their template when making the listing for the klaxons.
