When did Mercedes start putting these WIMPY horns on the W124??
The horns on my 300CE have personality and get attention. The horns on my '95 wagon sound like a Ford Taurus...what gives?
Anybody swap out horns for the older style? Do they mount up in the same location(s)?
Anyone go aftermarket?

Train Horns ... oh yeah. A little too much blast for my taste but secretly we all have wanted one for the guy who cuts you off and as he glances smugly in his mirror >> WOOOONK....WOOOONK
Unfortunately with 130db you could give an innocent bystander a heart attack.

1993 500E
i can attest to the fact that the "buick" horns were in the '93
124's. i had leased a 400E in 93 and the first thing i did was
swap the horn from an 89. when i got my 500E i found horns
from s '79 280SE and installed them. perfect!

89 300TE, and 68 280sel
oh man, I changed mine out to the newer style
, but atleast I still have that style horn on my 280. To me it just didn't seem that fitting to such a car.
