How do I deal with a crummy factory horn....

Wsup peeps, cant stand the sound of my factory horn...

work to do:
1. Change grills to black - can I fit the SiR grill in the civic sedan 03
I heard I can do it on my own via home depot...is this hard?

2. My sorry *** horn - airhorn or am I able to adjust the factory?

3. neoprene seats covers (black / red accent)...... dont like the way racing seats look

Pep Boys...It's like $16 there. Check my SoundDomain page in my sig for pics.

It sounds a lot better than stock, but if you want a really loud sound get an air horn.

I used to use the FIAMM's Electric Horns too but since I couldn't get it locally I tried out the Hella Trumpet Horns which looks like



.... I think they are much louder than the FIAMM's.

Good Luck!

When you order those Hella Electric Horns, do they come in pairs? And do you have a sound clip?

I got the Fiaam low tone horn and it is so simple to change, just remember to ground it!!!
I got mine at AutoZone and it was cheap, like 15ish. I wouldent say its super loud, but its soooo much better than that stock crap!

I went to Autozone to buy my oil filter and decided to look at the FIAMM horns. I bought low and high, both $10.00 each, and will hopefully get them installed this weekend. Hope it sounds good!
