So after only a couple weeks of owning my '11 FX4, I was hating on the sound of the horn.

It was wimpy sounding (tone) and not loud enough. Had a look at it, typical FIAMM snail horn. Low tone.

Ordered a pair of horns off EBAY, both Hi and Low tone meant for a Ford, with bracket and wiring.





Install was 100% plug and play, literally took less than 5 mins, simply bolted the included bracket in place of the original one, loosened the horns, and faced them to 6 o'clock to keep the weather out.

Wiring was identical, plugged right in, no hassle. Added a short chunk of split loom on the wiring between the two horns, and HOLY LOUD!!! :icon_surprised:

AND, a lot nicer tone than just the Low one by itself. :headbang:

MUCH louder, and sounds nothing like the factory horn.

The HI and LOW horns together make a much more authentic sound, the stock LOW horn was awful, sounded weak not only in volume but also the quality of the sound did not seem like it would make anyone want to get out of your way.

Alarm system? I only tried hitting the horn button to test, but I can't see how it would change anything. The wiring is identical to stock.

You have disappointed me. I was really hoping for something else when I clicked on this thread ;)
