Toot your horn...

Anyone else embarrassed honking their horn other than me? I'll be installing these over the weekend... (write up to follow).

The stock horn sounds ridiculous, I was literally laughed at by some guy in a lifted truck last night that cut me off.

Is the horn really that bad? I saw another thread where someone was talking about changing the horn. I was wondering why. I guess the stock horn is embarrassing. LOL
As stupid as this video is, does it sound like the horn on this generation of corolla?

Yes, the OEM horn sounds that bad if not maybe even a little more high pitched.

Coming from a Yaris Owner... It was also a safety issue... :serious:

I didn't pay attention on the horn. The only thing I care so far is the sound of the turning signal.

you care about it, like you enjoy it? Or it bothers you enough that you care it's annoying...?

sorry didn't state clearly. yea I meant I hate it so much. don't you think so?
Sick Speed makes some pretty cool stuff, I was going to install this horn on my 2013 Yaris LE but never got the chance. :/
Did you purchase and or install the horns yet?


I've had them installed for a while now (I posted them to the Facebook page I try not to cross post too much. I already seem a bit obsessive/ post whorish). It was fairly easy. Just needed some wire, connectors, electrical tape and stripping / cutting tools. The OEM bracket in the front of the car had 1 horn, BUT was drilled already for a second horn. I just took the bolt from the stock horn to Home Depot and matched the thread pitch and used those to mount the Sickspeed horns. I used the wiring coming from the OEM horn, and made a ground under one of the OEM bolts to the frame.

Do you have a video of your new horn? Interested to hear the new sound compared to the stock one.
Someone should get a Wheelen air horn aka cop horn, it might help in getting folks out of your way ;)

changed mine out couple weeks ago, got some 2015-2016 dodge durango horns. they were FREE!!!! best kind i guess.

I do not have a video of the old horn for comparison, but I will take one of the new horns when I get home from Baltimore. I'm on the road now.
Tempted to get a train horn. Of course I'll honk responsibly. :D

Hey Nick, I was trying to select a Sickspeed horn on the autostars_inc ebay site and didn't know which ones were compatible with the iM since their site doesn't let you put in 2016 models. Maybe I'm missing something, but, their store is not very user friendly to let you put in your car info and find out what fits. How did you know which to pick? Does the "P6" at the end of the part number specify mounting info?

Thanks
