Alex, replace that horn with a Fiamm low-tone, if you want it to fit under the cowbell cover. It is cheap and has a better tone, available in car parts accessory shops in the UK, probably USA as well.

:-D
Thanks Bob - I replaced it with a Fiamm Freeway Blaster in 2003, if that's what you mean.

I had a concurrent issue with the horn not working properly at idle (strangled sound). This turned out to be battery related, and was resolved when the battery was replaced. The tech who did my scheduled service in 2004 replaced the battery, and also "changed a setting" on the horn which raised the sound a few octaves, but also made it quieter. If someone knows where you change the horn settings, I'd appreciate knowing cause I'd like to adjust it.
