Original horns

Post by Phuketpaul » Sun Mar 07, 2021 10:17 pm

My horn sounds pathetic, just a quiet "peep"

So I ordered a pair of replacement aftermarket horns, but when I took the bumper off today I found a pair of "Fiamm" horns, only one was connected as although the connectors fit they are far too large and fall off easily.

I assume the fiamm horns are not original, can anyone confirm whether these are original or not?

Cheers

Mine are Bosch and marked up with Audi rings and partnumbers on the back so I assume that they are OE. Having said that, ETKA shows two different sets of horns depending on market (one set mounts with a M8 stud, the other set with a M6).
I'm pretty certain that both sets would connect with the same multiplugs.

Thanks, I'll test both sets and fit the best sounding with proper connections, anything will sound better than the current pathetic "peep"
