Replacing standard horn
« on: November 24, 2019, 03:19:32 PM »
Good Afternoon everyone, I have just purchased an 18 plate 595 abarth. Love it to bits. Unfortunately the horn is totally useless for a car of this type. I have bought a air horn as a replacement. Apparently the original horn is built in to the front panel and quite a bi1g job.
I don't want to have to take the whole thing apart. Does anyone else have any ideas of how to fit the new horn without taking the whole front apart

Hello
The horn is located underneath front nearside (passenger) headlight to the right & down from the battery. It is possible to get to it but space is tight down there, another way to get to it is to remove the front wheel and wheel liner. This is a 2010 version  :)

Thank you for that, I will have another look,. All I need is the wire from the horn to connect to the replacement
