pretty sure my dealership is retarded (about horns)

shutter13 · 03-22-2008, 11:13 AM

i wanna change my horn to another oem honda horn... i know the fit horn works but i was thinking that the accord horn should fit as well and will be even louder

i called up my local stealership to ask if the accord horn fits and the parts guy says 'we dont recommend it' but he didnt have a reason why.... im pretty sure a direct replacement horn wont short out my entire electrical system

anyone using a louder oem horn? which models fit?

and also, where is it possible to get just the driver's side Si embroidered mat... mine is way too worn out, but only the driver's side so i dont want a whole set

The Accord has two horns: a low tone and high tone. The low tone is the same as the Fit horn. I think I read only the Fit/Accord low tone horn is a direct plug and play, the other Honda horns need to be spliced.
