PIAA SPORTS HORN Installed (pics) - Toyota Yaris Forums

Yaris TTE JWRC · 02-01-2007, 08:19 PM

This morning i was driving around town, then some idiots drove a big truck with stuff towed join the lane that i was at 45mph, the idiot was so fu*ing slow in front of me so i had to switch lane and pass him, then that punk honked at me for passin him, i was like WTF!!?? so i honked back, but i felt my horn was soooo weak, like beep.!^#!%#!(^#%!!!.. that pissed me off, so i went down to the import auto superstore in CA and got me the PIAA SPORTS HORN KIT, $49.99, went home and installed them myself (came with 2 )within an hour, my horn now sounds way louder than stock, and it made the car sound so much European...SOO next time some one honk at me, they are going to be surprised....ahahahha

Looks good!

Is it ok to have the wires exposed like that in front of the rad? What if they get wet?

Changed the stock horns out the first day I got my car. Mine are all black without stickers on them so they aren't very noticeable behind the grille unless you stared at it.

I just bought a 139db horn. I think I'll go install it right now!

Doc Zaius · 02-03-2007, 07:17 PM

Hey Violin, or Yaris TTE JWRC (long name!)... I see you both have the 500/600 Hz horns. There is a 400/500 offering as well. I've tried to track down a recording of these horns, but can't find anything. Either of you feel like doing a quick video with the horn blaring? Maybe post here or on youtube? Thanks!

*Chris07LB* · 02-03-2007, 07:18 PM

Anything louder then these?

mmm i havent done any posting of video on youtube yet, and dont have a videocam, maybe you should ask V, since he has done it.

OK. I'll try to remember to record one today (after folks wake up). Give this thread a bump in a few days if I don't post up.

I chose the higher tone so as not to confuse other drivers. I figured a low tone would have people looking around for a larger car. It doesn't do much good to warn someone if they don't know where the warning is coming from.

The video you have requested is not available.

If you have recently uploaded this video, you may need to wait a few minutes for the video to process

Thats all I get....

Violin · 02-04-2007, 04:08 PM

Then you may need to wait a few minutes for the video to process!
