Sounds good

[Stephen Edwin]

How is progress?

It would be very interesting to see photographs of the installation please.

And.

How does the sound compare to, say, the horn or siren of:

1. An HGV.
2. A railway locomotive, or
3. HMS Queen Elizabeth....

Will the sound put the heebie jeebies in to anyone?

Disclaimer and Clarification: I recognise the horn to be only to give an audible warning of approach. Rarely to be used. However. It needs to be heard when and in the circumstances that it needs to be heard. Init.

So a heebie jeebies horn could be a very good idea. If a coach or an HGV has not noticed a jam jar and is about to run the jam jar orf the road, will they notice a pip squeal horn? Sometimes one NEEDS to be heard !!!!


P.S. Sounds Good ... nicely said ...

The horn isn't just used for giving a very loud warning.

Round here with mainly narrow roads with intermittant passing places, the ability to just brush the button gently to give a little peep is invaluable for saying thank you, or to signal "you go first" or "I'm reversing to the passing place", or simply "hello" to someone you know.
You don't always want to bellow in loud capital letters.

Another innovation I am noticing more is the "negative flash", to signify similar to the muted horn. Dazzling with full beam is not a helpful way of thanking someone who is trying to manoeuvre to let you pass, but a very brief turning off the lights then on again does the job politely.

Absolutely agreed.

Obviously best if a serious horn that might save one's life, can be also be used with gentle finesse.

I have a set of air horns on my 240. Nothing as grand as the OPs.

When needed though they make a statement and the car is noticed.

The 240 lends itself well to fitment with all that spare space in front of the radiator.

They Are installed, as you can imagine they are very loud. I’ve stuck them under the car out side at the back. Air tank in the boot. So far they have made me smile.

More American big rig sound. To others I guess it’s the queen Elizabeth!

This sounds like an interesting installation. Pictures would be very interesting.

EDIT: Is the installation vulnerable especially if one needs to negotiate rough ground or a kerb to get out of a situation?

I was thinking. There's half an acre in front of the radiator, but those horns could need five acres.

So. Re loud. Is the loudness from underneath at the rear effectively frightening the driver of the car, like having HMS QE II breathing up one's tail? Or ....

And Clifford's point is very important. Can you still gently toot with finesse?

I have pressing priorities in my life but....temptation....

Tucked up near the fuel tank. So loads of cleanace. I’d smash the diff first. Not the best install but was going to test run before making improvements. Am not sure how you upload photos on here.
