    Happened to the D2 that Junior now owns - 2 Hella units bolted in and all good to go.
    Thought I would follow up with this. Checked the relays and it clicks when the horn button is pushed so the horns are D.E.D. swapped the relay just to make sure and same result. Just need to order some new horns now. Undecided between Supertones or Sharptones.

    Cheers, Chris

    Hi Tombie,

    Did you have to wire in the relay as well or just modify the plugs?

    Cheers, Chris

    Sharp tones arrived today. They are bigger than I thought they would be. Very yellow.

    Sharp tones fitted this afternoon, horn work again.

    They are quieter than What I thought they would be.

    Great to have a working horn again.

    Seeing that they are pointing directly into sound deadening foam that they are quiet is not surprising.
    If you were to turn them 90degrees they would be much louder at the front of the car.
    This is why I fitted Hella scroll horns pointing forward when my RRC horns died.
