Really good thankyou!

How do yours sound in the boot? Is your mini an mpi captain kirk? And have you got them on a seperate switch somewhere near the dash?

I love the red push button!! thats brilliant! where did you get that from?

I decided that I didn't want the horns in the boot but actually they don't look too bad in your boot. They look like they take up a little bit of room but then I suppose there isn't that much room in the mini boot anyway so....

But thinking about it, do you think they could go somewhere in the inner wing? Or was there no where else you could fit them hence why they're in the boot?

Spi is almost the same as mpi in terms of engine bay space isn't it?

Got the switch from maplins i think it was 99p,some people put there airhorns in the inner wing,rear subframe anywhere you can find a space,i put mine in the boot so they wouldnt get damaged or full of dirt.

Hi amy, i put a small loud boat horn in just next to the original on my mpi and it fits a treat, then put a pull out switch like the on for the heater in the spare space on the switch panel.

The horn sounds like a old style gost train and has been great fun at thew shows and in convoys.

this came from www.airhorns.co.uk they also have lots for small musical/animal sound horns etc

hope this helps.

Which one do you have?


Thanks

Chris

Ok thanks, lots of food for thought there! Might just buy the horns and worry about where to fit them when I've got them :P

I was wondering this too? One of these? Click Still like the idea of the pull out switch in the switch panel....
A girl can never have too many horns :thumbsup: :thumbsup:
