I've heard that Hella Horns are extremely loud. They're supposed to fit right in - in place of the stock horns.

No that looks interesting. I wonder if there is enough room where the stock horn is to mount that?

My hella horns work great also. How "cold" is cold for you guys? did you get the ones made in India or Germany? I have not experienced problems so far, but hre in Seattle we have just gotten to the high 20's and not much colder than that so far.
