Default TL or MDX horn anyone?

Has anyone tried changing the stock horns to the ones from the TL or MDX?

although stock replacement horns work well too. I've seen others put in dual toned "standard" horns, and it sounds much better than our "beep beep" stock horn.

I went to a great deal of trouble to replace my horn with a Hella unit. Turns out it's no better than standard. Apparently we have new regulations which limit horn sound and this is a compliant one. And pretty much no one stocks any decent horns here anymore.

If anyone has a set of those FIAMM twin scroll horns spare I'd love to pick some up.

I wanted to stay with a simple and relatively OEM solution.

I just realized that I have never used my horn, so after reading this post I went out to check out the sound. OMG!!! I am so glad I've never used them on the road. I could just imagine the laughter from the guys in the pickup monsters as I 'beep beep' them out of the way. This will have to be my first mod, where do I sign up for the air horn?

I may just order the horns that are in my MY '00 Accord. Now, those will get your attention!

The stock horn really sucks. It is so pathetic, I want to replace it.
