Before i got my air horns i just used to rev my engine the exhaust is way louder than the standard horn lol!!!

But loving to air horns the sound of them just fits a mini, if you get what i mean

[Tomf]

I have just brought a set of air horns and im not quite sure how you acctually fit them. can someone help me?? I have drawn some quick sketches of the horns and i have circled the fixing clip. how do i fix these on to anything i dont quite get it. do i put a nut in the gap then screw a bolt in to this nut or how do i do it.

the bolts will be threaded with a square bit on the topt he square (plate) slips in that gap the threded bit goes through the desired hole then the nut on the other side screwed on, quite simple if u look at it. also for sadfty sake so they dont move put a locking washer on between the metal and the nut, also keep te hose as short as possible wothout kinks and youll get the loudeds the horns will do

iv put my 2 horms where ur compresser is and mounted the compresser in the whole that iv circled, you can reach to bolt it from inside the wing. and you can barely see the compressor. i think it looks tidy
