Horn!

[LozzaBeat]

My horn recently decided to pack up on me but I can't find where it's actual location is to fix/change it!

Does anyone know where they are meant to be?

I just wen to Halfords and got a horn from there, was a simple enough job to attach it.

Thankyou! I haven't managed to check those links yet but I'm sure they're useful enough! :D

Funny how the simplest things can prove so difficult!

I've replaced the horn on both our Beats. Jack up and remove O/S front wheel. Undo the screws holding the front wheelarch liner and pull back to reveal the horn. You don't need to remove the bumper.

Thanks guys - my dad found it in the end, he had to remove the bumper tho. Good thing however as he found that the new radiator i had fitted last year has broken away from its brackets and im losing water! Again!

Needless to say, she's going in for a service in a fortnight so lets hope she gets better (and cheaply!). I also got a more meaner sounding horn from Halfords. I now sound more like 'get out of my way u unimportant beast' as opposed to a 'ouch im scared leave me alone!', which can only be a good thing...

Thanks again
