    i believe passenger side under the headlight. take the headlight out. unbolt the horn and unplug it. and replace. IF your horn is not working make sure its the horn and not a wiring problem or a relay.

    Horn in my 06 GP works on and off so I'm thinking I need to replace. I'd like to get one loud enough to make people just poop. Any suggestions?

    they sell them by tone, A-E, A being hi pitched, E being deep like a old school horn.

    Good to know...anyone ever try an air horn? Are they tough to hook up? I'm looking for some eardrum smashing decibels.

    be warned air horns sound good and loud for the first few months, then they blow out to just loud.


    you need a tank, a compressor, tubing and a spot to mount the horn. its not legal to use it on the city streets either, just like a big rig. the little horn is called a city horn as far as us truckers are concerned. we get a ticket if it dont work. messed up right?

    Out by Manfield/Attleboro ...especially on 495/95 it's all fair game. Although.. you might want to be wary of bullets after you honk at them.
