Forgive me for the thread bump, but I figured it would be better than starting a new one about the same thing...

I was recently in discussions with my dealer to upgrade my horn to something a little... better. I came across these ones a while back and I liked the sound based on the Toyota Japan website. Turns out they are a Japan only accessory in "official" terms, so the dealer themselves can't order them in as parts. However, they offered to install it for me if I can get it myself and bring it to them.

I live near Toronto. Any ideas on where I can buy this from? Preferably a physical store, but if not then at least a respectable and trustworthy online site that ships to Canada without charging an arm and a leg.

Any suggestions?

You could purchase the horn kit from www.jdmpit.com

Their price for the Toyota Premium Horn (w/ Splitter Cables) is $113 USD and includes shipping via USPS to Canada. Going via USPS is good since you don't get burned by courier brokerage fees. I would say they are trustworthy vendors. I am from Toronto too and purchased a shifter from them in April. It arrived within a few weeks with no problems.

If the price works for you then the only down-side is that at the moment, this horn is out of stock so you might have to wait.

I am in Waterloo, Ontario, and got my horn from JDMPIT as well.

Thanks for doing this write up, Marty. I just ordered a set from JDMPit. I'm really looking forward to replacing my "Road Runner" horn.
