| Before road rage became the rage I preferred the one finger salute. Horns are over rated, non of my aircooled cars have them | |

| A new horn from parts for imports is pretty cheap. Assuming it is 12 volt they have them in stock. | |

| I rewired my horn with with a relay!
Everyone knows how much I like relays. I am with relays like David is with carburators and distributors. The Ghia has like 7 and I am not even done yet.
I love relays... Ahhhhh....
Well anyways, I am not sure you need a relay, but they are fun...
Sounds like a good tech day side project. Are the tabs bent or part missing?
Just need to be able to get a connector on there or we could solder a some new wires with male connectors.
I like to solder almost as much as I like relays!
Or you could just buy one for like 10 bucks and be done with it. | |

Post a pic of the horn so we see if it can be fixed.

| Spencer, The horn that I have , I just removed from a stock '74 Super beetle. So it should go beep-beep like you want. |
