I want to replace my OEM horns with either a set of air trumpets or a set of Hella horns. Came close to getting hit on a lane change by a SUV, with a teenage driver who apologised and then claimed that he did not hear the horn! Stereo must have been cranked up.

1. Has anyone done this, and where are the OEM horns located?

2. Has anyone used the Moss Mini air horns in an S, and is the installation a good one?

Thanks

 

hey.. i know where the horns are located..

if you take off your front bumper they are on the left and right sides of the head lamps..

i blew my horns when we made it into the second round of playoffs so i had to get them replaced hehe..

 

Thanks for the help.

Let me see if I can get this picture to load from Yahoo, sometimes the security gets in the way if you are not a member. I have air horns and the picture shows the installation.

 

The original horns are visible once the front bumper cover is removed. A bit of a tight spot. Click on the pic below for a full size shot. There are 2 horns, one in the same location on each side of the car.

Yes, I installed the Moss Motors air horns on my MCS. The installation was fairly easy. They fit (snugly) into existing space under the hood, and don't require removal of the existing horns. They're quite a bit louder than stock and have a tone that IMHO fits the MINI image quite well.
