Tim T Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 The forum seems to have a recommended company to do most reconditioning jobs. So where could I sent the horns from my car to give them a new lease of life or are the metal Chinese repros the sensible option? Look forward to sound advice as usual - no need to excuse the pun!

michaeldavis39 Posted August 2, 2020 Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Tim are your horns the clear hooters type? If so you can usually refurb them yourself - if the horns aren't sounding there is a screw on the top which can be turned left it right, I've found if you turn a quarter turn either way and connect to a 12 volt battery you can keep doing this one way or the other and usually you can get the horn to work again. To clean the clear hooters horns use a wire wheel on a drill to clean up the casing which is made of alloy then once done spray with primer and black topcoat spray paint. If your horns still don't work I have a set already refurbed ready to fit for a fee. Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tim T Posted August 2, 2020 Author Report Share Posted August 2, 2020 Thanks Michael. They are Clear hooters so will have a tinker in the morning. Be prepared for more questions though. What sort of fee might you be looking at? Cheers, Tim Quote Link to post Share on other sites
michaeldavis39 Posted August 3, 2020 Report Share Posted August 3, 2020 Well the last set I sold was £50 sold on eBay with much interest as these are quite rare now due to people replacing them with modern horns. Decent set of modern horns I've looked at are around £35 yes there are cheaper ones but you get what you pay for. Michael Quote Link to post Share on other sites
