Hi guys I’m new to the forums. My name is Alex and i’m from Holland (so my English may be a little weird). I have known hornblasters for years but never had the money to buy a kit. Now I did and I just got it in the mail (conductor’s special 228vx). Went for the cheapest kit because shipping alone was 220 dollars :o
I’m going to put them in an opel astra 2002, so I have very limited space…
I can fit the 2 smallest ones at the bottom of the engine bay, the biggest two are in the top, near the engine.
My question is: will they be allright where they are now? I don’t want them to melt lol
Picture:
(the horns are not touching anything metal from the engine, but they are close.)
Anyway, it will be a zip tie galore I think
Thanks for any help and I will try to post more images when I continue installing the horns. Can’t wait to hear them for the first time in person! Only heard it in videos
Also keep your air lines clear of the same heat sources (especially the one from the tank to the solenoid) - they tend to go soft long before the horns do. If they’re under pressure then they just pop a bubble and blow out.
Thanks guys, i’m going to get puzzling again later today. Because of my A/C there is an extra radiator in front of the engine radiator, with a big fan, so there is not much space there unfortunately. I’m going to take off the bumper and try to fit at least 3 in there. One will stay in the engine bay or at the bottom. I will keep the airlines far away from the engine.
I really need this on my car
