I'm very disappointed with the standard Gen2 horn, in particular to stupid place it's located and that it sounds like a Deliveroo rider's 😟,....

There is just nowhere to mount a proper one (Stebel Nautilus compact) and I've spent a week or two looking ! I eventually bit the bullet and bought a 110bd 12v horn that's a bit bigger than stock, but it just won't fit in the same place.

I've seen a Youtube Video of a guy fitting a Denali horn by bending the supplied bracket and painting it black (and that's a bit bigger) but there are two brake pipes in there which you can't allow the horn to touch - so have mounted it at 90° to the original position, and a bit further out. It's a bit closer to the exhaust than I would like, and had to make a very awkward spiral bracket, but we'll see how it goes ?

Anyone else done something or got any bright ideas ? It might go on the LH side, but it appears you'd need to cut the radiator shroud, and I don't want to do that of course. We'll see if this works - it's certainly a lot louder,......
