Can we see the beam pattern against a wall from the drivers point in darkness ?

The stock horn definitely BLOWS... I will have to tackle this problem at some point. Is there anywhere on the Internet that we can hear samples of aftermarket horns?

I too would like to change my horn and would like to know what it sounds like before I buy it. I would like to get some nicer headlights.

Any suggestions about headlights/horns would be greatly appreciated.

Has sample sounds... Just not for the Hella Horn you installed.

I had the Hella horn installed yesterday (following your sage "take your car to your mechanic and have them install the horns" advice).

They are ideal -- loud and attention-getting. Really helps solve the problem of being invisible to SUVs and cell-phone users on the 405. Recommended!

Ah yes, how I miss my HID lights that I've had in my past 2 cars. Fog lights would definitely be a great addition. I had some PIAA fog lights installed on my Maxima and with those and my HID lights on, I could blind about anyone!

Needless to say, I am debating getting an HID kit for my HCH. I loved how the salesman at the dealership here, saw the HIDs on my old 03 HC, and acted like it was a big deal and honda couldn't certify it as a used vehicle because of it, blah blah blah. Even after I explained that it's a harness that plugs in to the existing wires, he acted like he didn't get it (moron!). The rims & swapped out tail lights is what made it so they couldn't "certify" it as they weren't Honda parts.

Who has everyone used for their HID kits?

I just installed those horns and they are great! I highly recommend them for someone who wants a horn that will stand out.

I find the horn that comes with the HCH2 gets attention! Why go to all that trouble to change a horn that works?

Yeah, It says here comes a wuss; ignore, harass, or generally intimidate them. It is also the noise Droopy Dog makes, which will make people look to see if you are him!

Horn that works? Shirley you are joking? Driving between a semi and a Hummer I lay into the Horn and no one even notices me as they continue to make lane changes that are going to make me into a Hybrid sandwich if i don't slam on my borg regenerative cycle.
