ok i guess i'll share the wealth...


i have this horn in both my audi and s2k...


in the back of that theres a screw adjuster covered with black silicone.... remove that and tighten the philips screw of the 500Hz, you dont have to do it on the 300Hz... but not too much where the the buzzer arm touches the coil or else it wont buzz. you can make your own distinct horn that way... replace silicone and youre done.

i love mine... thats why i love it when someone cuts me off coz they always receive 20seconds worth of my horn ive been using HELLA horns since my first car when i was 15.

oh and i used the existing wire... our stock relay is good enough, although i had to change to a higher amp fuse.
