Are these waterproof? I see folks mounting them behind the grill exposed to the elements.

that depends on the wiring. if your wiring is done very clean and sealed up right.. i.e shrink tubing or electrical tape and you use male and female connectors, you should have no problems. I've wired mine to the specification i just mentioned and have ran them in downpours, hurricane-like, sideways rain, snow, sleet, everything. never had a problem. also the positioning of the relay is essential. that you would want to look for a spot, preferably under the hood that's away from the elements. but as for the horns, I've ran them in the weather like I've said behind the grill and also ran them without my bumper on at all. being constantly exposed and absolutely no issues. that depends on the wiring. if your wiring is done very clean and sealed up right.. i.e shrink tubing or electrical tape and you use male and female connectors, you should have no problems.

The horns themselves are, yes, though you will want to weatherproof the connectors somehow. I have them mounted on a motorcycle, right up front by the headlights, and have never had an issue with them even after riding in the rain. It's also worth noting that to run these correctly, you're going to want to use the supplied relay. Wired up according to the diagram, there is no voltage at the terminals until you press the horn button and energize the relay.

They seem to be. Mine are mounted behing the grill. Car washes, rain, snow? They keep right on making nose. Lol.

They are waterproof, yes, I've been running these for a few years and they are super loud. Mounted them behind the grill on my Mazda 3 hatch. I do have an issue with a ground somewhere, one of the tones periodically cuts out on me, but I am fairly certain is was due to user error on the install, and not a problem with the horns.

My trailer stays out in the weather all the time. They still work. So they must be weatherproof.

I have them installed on my boat. They really do not get direct water to them. But they do get moisture on a daily basis. They may get wet here in there when were running but that's about it. I've had no issues to date. But I'm not sure if they would work for your application. The speakers are quite heavy.

There is no indication on the light that they are waterproof, and here I believe you mean submersible. When I installed them on my utility trailer I did caulk around them to protect them from the weather. The lights have been on the trailer several months now with no problems.

I would say "yes" because they are "water-proof", if that is the version you purchase. I bought waterproof and have them for outdoors on my deck. Your idea sounds very unique! They should last 20 years. Bryan

I would call them "water resistant", not proof. They have a rubber seal inside a groove that protects the battery compartment. That said, I hang them somewhere under an eve, mostly to keep them out of direct sunlight. If the units sit in the sun, you get temperature readings that are too high. As far as rain and heavy weather, I live in the tropical rainforest part of Oregon and I've never had any trouble with the sensors going bad. Getting them to stay connected to the base can be a challenge though. Always use lithium ion batteries, or you'll regret it.

They are designed for exterior use. Mine are completely unprotected. They are holding up well but we do not get a lot of rain in San Diego.

they are not waterproof but the moisture doesn't soak through quickly if subjected to some water. i haven't submerged them in anything so i can't speak to that..

I would install them in your application. As long as they are out of direct water contact, they are an enclosed fixture with a screw in mount.I don't recall if there was any listing or UL rating as far as indoor / outdoor/ damp location.

I'm not 100% sure if they are "officially" water proof or water resistant, but I did ride with them while it was lightly raining and they seemed fine. No issues.

I have ours installed outside. They are under a covered patio and go into a protected portion of the ceiling. Have the installed for over a year and no issues.

They are ajustable You may need to Drill your Grill If your installing on a pontoon make sure youhave open fence like on the picture. If not they have a model for a closed fence.Very good quailty mounts.

Yes they are waterproof. Just make sure that you mount the box inside the cab of the vehicle, as the boxes and connectors are not waterproof.

Im sorry i dont know, they are mounted inside my truck. but with the amount of space leading into the unit, i wouldnt trust it to be waterproof

I wouldn't consider them waterproof. They are made to replace a bulb in a fixture , not to be exposed to the elements.
