Horn going off when cold

[kpaske]

The same thing happens to mine occassionally, but only when it gets REALLY cold. I always thought it was due to some moisture somewhere freezing and completing an electrical circuit, but i suppose the expansion hypothesis might be a little more plausible, given that it only happens only the very coldest of nights. I've got some Hellas that need to be installed - maybe if I get around to it sometime soon we'll see if that solves my issue...

as for "supertones" it's a model of horn made by Hella... you might have better luck searching for "Hella Supertones"

they're really popular with the Subaru crowd, they're big and red and for some reason Impreza owners love to stick them in the grill...

I actually have a set, uninstalled, don't let the video fool you they are LOUD!

They're pretty cheap too. I, picked mine up new for $45 a few years back, they might not look bad centered behind the tusks on a VX

Back to this supertones topic for a sec....

I FINALLY got around to installing mine in the VX tonight (like you said.... us Subie guys have strange fetishes.... the VX just HAD to match my WRX ). Well, not so much. Simply put, the supertones don't fit between the grill and the radiator. THE SUCK! The grill is quite concave and sits back quite a bit. More than I actually imagined. I am pretty bummed about this. I REALLY wanted them to work. For now, I have one installed in place of the OEM horn, but it just isn't the same.

try removing the front bumper... lotsa room there.. i managed to get an 18" trumpet in there.. and while youre in there you can pull the second factory horn (under passenger headlight)

Well, there are many options, but I was trying to go with the traditional "Subie fanatic" mount as mentioned above, heh.



(not mine pictured, but mounted in the same manner on my WRX)

Oh well....

looks kool ..might have to do it to mine.....add some window washer sprayer in there pointing forward..and you can spit on things..

damn, i was getting ready to order mine...there is no way to get them to fit in behind the center grill??? even with a little cutting and a little bracket making?

I need not two but four of those supertones honks so when i'm 20 cars behind the 1rst car at the traffic light the ahole can hear me honking at him\she to make them keep moving when traffic light turns green instead of texting or watching videos on their Iphones here in NYC.

Damn it,I really hate to drive in this hell of a city

I have found no way to do it. On the pass. side with the fan, totally not. The driver's side, looks like something might work, but the grill ribs sink in far enough that there is not enough room in that sammich for more meat. The only 2 places I found that I would use are just behind the headlights. I am weighing against doing it at all now though. Really wanted the red eyes peeking through the grill.

how about behind the slots in the bumper in front??
