Yeah not quite sure why that was relocated to there but is is louder..
want to move it back to its original position on theleft side front bumper mount.
Alternatively I could opt for a twin horn set I saw this week.. only R100

and Hazet tool Kit'72 wrote:Thanks! The front seats are recovered (quite well) and the front door panels around the winders are damaged so i'm looking into vinal repair same color. I almost bought a 68-71 beetle with mint red interior and all the chrome on the steel dash with the chrome horn push lever but the motor packed up before i could say yes.. So R5k more and i rather bought this one which required little more work but came with so many extra parts:) wind deflectors, louver deck, aluminium chrome palate trim between the center hubcap and the outer rim.. (post a pic cause i don't know what this is called)

The tool kit was given to me a few weeks back by a friend who got it from his grandfather and just didn't have any use for it.. Big wow!

I struggled for a while with dodgy okes all over until i found Wheelnutz in JHB. some of the wheel repair guys in CPT also send their stuff to him.
I had my scooby's OZ 18" repaired. absolute perfect job.
