Air Horns
V8MoneyPit:
Just reading my MOT manual on this one. Not too sure whether you can fit one based in the following.
One of the reasons for rejection is:
"Two or more tone horn fitted - NOTE: When operated, a two or more tone horn automatically produces a sound which alternates at regular intervals between fixed notes"
Safe answer is to have a standard one switchable for the MOT.
As an aside, Pre 1906 vehicles can be fitted with a gong, bell or siren :lol:
Paul:
If you read on it says that multi tone horns may be fitted to
Pre 1972 vehicles, Two-tone can only be used as part of an
anti-theft device.
V8MoneyPit:
Hi Paul
My copy dates from the Mid '90's so it may be different now. But, it's unusual for things to be changed retrospectively on the MOT. However, you live and learn :D
Paul:
Maybe mines just got a bit more information in it than yours Steve.
To answer James question you carn't legally use musical air
horns on a 1990 vehicle, Nothing to stop you fitting them and
using them on off road sites. :)
Leave the standard one in place and have the musicals on a
seperate switch.

Or have two horns and pull one out for the MOT. I used to have air horns on my capri years ago and they were cool. They ran off an electical pump.
