It's a fine horn, easy to install with instructions. The trouble is, it arrived as a 400Hz, not 360Hz(see picture). Also, I wish it would have had a tandem cable so I could use BOTH horns. A bit late now though, it's installed.

This is a solid wall mount, works as expected and described. I currently have a 27" ViewSonic display mounted on it, and it moves and adjusts quite smoothly. I would recommend this wall mount to others, if asked.

It was also easy to install, which is quite fortunate, since the instructions are both incomplete and actually wrong in places. For example, the list of tools needed includes a "ratchet with a 5/16 inch socket", which appears nowhere in the instructions, though Step 3 calls for using "an open ended socket wrench"-- I'm not sure why, as literally all of the included fasteners (including the lag screws for the wall) are phillips head with a rounded cap, and the only bolt with a hex head in the whole package is not meant to be user-adjusted. It also manages to skip steps (the removal of the TV plate from the arm for installation on the screen between steps 3 and 4, for example) and make a couple of other mistakes. The package even included two Allen wrenches-- again, not sure why as none of the hardware has a hex socket head that could accommodate an Allen wrench; ditto for the included socket/crescent wrench. In the end, it was still easy to install since it's so simple, but I have to take a star off for the bad instruction guide and unnecessary hardware.

Summary:
I just finished putting this horn along with its Low Note cousin on my 2008 RAV4.  Previous to replacing them, the two stock horns that came on the auto were what you would call pathetically anemic sounding at best - I've beeped (what these stock horns do cannot be described as a honk) at people who have cut me off on the interstate and folks would never even hear it.  With these replacement FIAMM 72102 and 72112 in concert with each other, the horn sounds like something you would hear from a well made older car - in other words, it's not a sound that drivers will be able to ignore.  They will likely be looking around for a larger car than a RAV4!

Installation:  I failed to find anything on the internet that described the replacement horn installation process for my car.  The 2008 RAV4, out of the factory, has two anemic horns  powered by a single ten amp circuit. I'm assuming this fuse will provide enough juice to power the new horns. (if not, I suppose I will blow a fuse and I'll put in a larger fuse) As a result the relay and relay socket housing I purchased are not required...it's a simple remove and replace operation.  To replace the horns I started by:

1) In order to gain access to the horns, start by removing the plastic panel that covers the radiator/grill, this is a very simple operation thanks to the push pin style plugs that hold it in place. Simply push the center of these plugs in and they will pull right out.  There's about nine of these, so be sure to get them all and the panel will lift off easily after slipping it under the hood release pin.

2) There is a single bolt on each horn holding them in place.  It's tricky to remove the bolts because the head of the bolt faces the grill and it is not visible through the opening, but with a small (12mm I believe) socket and ratchet, loosening of the bolt can be done by feel.  The only way to avoid this would be to remove the grill, which I decided not to do, as blindly loosening the bolts took only 1-2 minutes each.

3) Once the bolts are removed it's a simple job to remove the signal wire clipped to the horn by squeezing the clip and pulling it off. The old Toyota stock horns could be saved for children's toys :)

4) The new horns are installed exactly where the old ones were located (make sure to mount them with the horn mouth in a downward orientation as to prevent water from becoming trapped in the horn mouth).  After placing the horn signal wire clip on the new horns, and connecting the metal mounting arm provided with the horn - make sure you put the smaller hole in the mounting arm on the horn shaft with the ground wire under the nut and tighten.

5) The bigger hole in the mounting arm is then able to be bolted to the car with the original bolt.  Here is where I decided to deviate from the standard Toyota horn mounting method.  I rotated the horn assembly 180 degrees around so as to not place it under the housing, but to positioned it nearer the radiator.  The reason for doing this is obvious, it allows one to drive the bolt in plain sight.  Notice that these bolts should be vigorously tightened, not only to provide good mechanical attachment but also for the purpose of properly grounding the horn.  This is assuming you don't choose to run a separate ground wire to the horn.  Test the horns at this point in the process.  If the horns don't sound loud enough, the ground connection would be the first place I would suspect.

6) Replace the panel and secure it by putting the pins back in.

At this point in time, I am one very satisfied customer...I'm hoping that time will prove these horns endure the extremes of Michigan winters and summers without issue. I hope this information will help remove the mystery of installing the horns on your RAV4.

I love this Horn, it is great if you are in traffic and want to alert the car that is just pulling in front of you, or merging into your lane...It defiantly has a punch and the first couple time startled myself when I used it, it defiantly get the attention of motorists. The Install was easy too, took me all of 10 minutes. If you are using the Velcro strip on the bottle it is recommended to let the glue cure for min of 3 hrs before mounting it.
You will notice, especially if you have bulky gear shifters that it may be difficult to mount the horn with the integrated button close enough to your Handlebar grip. So it is sometimes difficult, unless you have a long thumb or finger to reach the trigger without sliding your hand over.
You should probably not use this on Pedestrians unless it is an emergency, I have a regular bell mounted on my bike to give them a more gentle alert.
If you are living in Canada you may want to buy this at MEC instead, it is merely $18 and change there.

Bought the Stebel to replace the anemic horn on my Yamaha Majesty. Not a difficult install--but a bit tedious, as a lot of tupperware has to be removed to route the wires properly. I ran the power wire down the left side of the scooter and slipped it under the wire ties that brought the power forward.

Simply, replace the OME horn with the supplied relay. The relay can be bolted up with all of the other relays under the front cowling. The new horn can be installed onto the old horn bracket, but it will take a bit of bending and drilling a new hole in the bracket to get the horn up under the plastic (mostly).

Once in place, the horn works beautifully. Very loud. Not semi-truck loud, but close. It has prevented someone from pulling out of a parking space into my path at least twice. A very worthwhile investment IMHO.

This is worth the money - the instructions are very clear and all the support parts needed to make the Air Horn install easily are included - including the fuses - fuse holder - relay - and other electrical parts to tie in the wiring.

I'm glad that I replaced the OEM horn in my 2000 Miata with the Wolo Model 419 Bad Boy Air Horn.  The OEM horn sounded like a bicycle horn & wouldn't scare a child. The Bad Boy has a louder two tone sound, like much larger cars and you will not be ignored anymore.

The only difficult task was removing the existing OEM horn & bracket.  I had to remove the Miata grille (screen) and one passenger-side headlight bolt to gain access to the OEM horn, mounting bracket, electrical wire & wire clamp.

I used the previously removed OEM horn bracket, after drilling a 1/4" dia. hole (near the bend in the bracket)for the Wolo Bad Boy horn kit included mounting bolt.  See the customer images for approximate hole location & installation photos.  I mounted the OEM horn bracket with the existing bolt on the radiator mount. The Bad Boy horn tucks nicely tucks in this area and is easily accessible.  See customer images for installation location.

Wiring-I used the existing OEM wire & clamp. I cut off the old wire connector & then crimped on a new 3/8" insulated female spade terminal.  This wire lead connects to the plus(+) Wolo male spade.  There a existing hole in the car frame where you can insert the existing wire clamp to anchor this plus (+) wire lead.

I purchased some 16AWG wire for a chassis ground (you will only need about 6" of 16AWG wire).  I crimped a 3/8" female spade on one end (which connects to the minus (-) Wolo male spade).  Then I crimped a 1/4" vinyl insulated ring terminal to the other end of the ground wire. Note: Attach both plus & minus wire leads to Bad Boy horn before securing the horn to the OEM bracket with the bolt included in the kit.

I cut about 3/8" off the Wolo mounting bolt, so that the threads would not protrude so close to the radiator (this is totally optional).  Next tighten the Wolo mounting fastener nut to secure the horn to the OEM horn bracket.

I used the original bolt (that secured the OEM horn bracket) to secure the ground ring terminal to the car frame.  There is an existing threaded hole in the car frame where you can terminate the ground wire [from the minus (-) lead from the Wolo horn].  See customer images for installation location.

To insure that the Miata electrical system would handle the increased current, I replaced the existing (15 Amp) horn fuse with a 20 Amp fuse.  The fuse box is located in the passengers' side of the engine compartment near the wiper fluid container.  Note: The horn circuit is the same as the stop light circuit.  It is indicated on the top of the fuse box as a "Stop 15A".  See customer images for the fuse box & notations.

Hopefully this will help other Miata owners to install the Wolo Model 419 Bad Boy Air Horn in your vehicle.  I am glad that I took the time to do it, because I could not stand to hear that annoying little OEM horn any more.  The Wolo horn is relative inexpensive and well worth the money when purchased at Amazon.com. It is normally $39.99 at Harbor Freight.

New Parts Required Summary: (1) Wolo Model 419 Bad Boy Horn Kit, (1) 20Amp Fuse, (1) Approx. 6" long 16AWG wire, (2) 3/8" vinyl insulated female spade terminals and (1) 1/4" vinyl insulated ring terminal.

Good Luck,

J. Anderson

I ordered these to replace my fried factory horn.  The horn(s) sound fantastic and mounting and wiring was a breeze. The 115dB rating seems to be right at the exit of the horn though, so it's not as loud as you may think. I haven't had to use it for any 'emergency' purpose yet, so I'm unsure how other drivers will react to it.

It just OK, off key, and not really loud in traffic.
Easy to install if you have the room to place 13" long trumpets. Everything is plastic and pot metal. They sound OK for the construction, but the tuning is off-pitch so that nice horn harmony is missing. The frequency is mid-range low, and travels well, but the lack of loudness against basic traffic prevents it from being a true attention getter. It might be crisper and louder with a single compressor feeding each horn. Replacing them with the much louder, smaller, high pitch Wolo Air Max.

I installed this on my BMW R1100R motorcycle. The bike already has adequate relay and wiring, so it was just a matter of extending the wires to reach the new contacts. I removed the old straight horn bracket and used just one of the three plates, which I bent at a right angle. Mounted the horn to the bracket and the bracket back to it's mounting point. The horn mouth is at the left of the bike pointing backwards.
It is very loud. A good safety feature for use with car drivers on cell phones wandering into your lane!

Just received my dixie horn today. My horns came in black. It came with all of the screws and bolts for the horns and compressor. Doesn't have a bracket though. I did do some fun installation and got the compressor and 3 of the horns between the grill and the metal plate. Then on the other side I put the other 2 under the bonnet. I thought I would use some english. So i mean hood. It also came with 90 inches of tubing, the compressor and five horns. It has a bosh style relay came with it. wish i would've known because before i bought this i installed the switch so it would just plug in. so i already bought one but i have a spare now. the horns and compressor are color coded so they are simple to get right. but it took me about 5 hours to wire up a switch with a relay so i guess it was nice to have that already in there. cause it took me a while because i didn't use any other brackets other than the ones that were on my truck when it was build. took me about 4 hours of tinkering around to find out where to put them.  I have the hoses at 18 inches right now because that is the farthest out one of the horns is away from the compressor. the pitch is a little higher than the original. I think it may be because of the length of my hoses though. doesn't bother me. at least it is not as bad as wolo. even though wolo is the real brand of dixie.  it is pretty humorous because i drive an 89 ford ranger. so it is a dinky truck with a big dixie horn. I love it. Go with fiamm and you'll love it too.

Motorcycle horns are just plain worthless. This horn gets attention when you need it. Larger than stock, but not obtrusive. Easy to mount takes all of five minutes. Black blends in and the eye is not drawn to it.

very good product.  Instructions could be better, but product is fine

Great price for a loud horn, installation was easy and was an improvement that added to the stock horn. Nice and loud!!

First thing's first: I have to unscrew the bell JUST a bit to get it to ring properly. If it's screwed on entirely, it stifles the ring. This has the unfortunate side effect of giving the thing a bit of a rattle when going down bumpy roads. I will be checking with my local Public Bikes shop to see if this is a defect.
That said, this still comes highly recommended. When set up properly, the bell is LOUD, which is just what you need to get the attention of pedestrians about to meet your front wheel. The design is elegant, mounting it is simple on many handlebar types, and it rings quite easily, which is a boon when you have to hit it quick.

This is cute and functional. I wasn't looking for a bell, but the combination with the horn is nice.

THe horn on my '92 Vulcan has been going for a while.  THis was a quick cheap replacement that is VERY loud.  I would prefer a deeper tone but this does the job and was a easy bolt on solution versus the air horn soultions that require a wiring change to add in an additional horn relay.
