I was going to replace the factory horns with a set of Hella horns. Has anyone done this, and if so, and advice.

Thanks

i did it...

had them for almost 8 months, and still cooking. I only cut one side of the horns, so my horn is the stock high one, and the hella's. I have heard of them blowing out, but not for me. I recommend them highly!

cheers,
Danny
