Finally got my hella superton horn set installed thanks to most of scoobytech's help. I painted and assembled both sets, he's installing them. Hope and I bought a set each for our cars while at PDX and so yesterday I got around to dismantling them to paint the casing. She wanted black to blend in on her Legasti and I wanted white as a contrast to stand out behind the black grills of the STi.

I'll post up more pics of the install on her car once we do it. Right now just got mine in tonight.

While painting.

Indoors without the flash, they don't stand out to much which I like.

Pretty small stock horn compared to the hella superton horns.

Now I want someone to piss me off on the streets so I can sound these bad buys off. :D

Looks beautiful Phil. I must say, I like the centered look, did you have to drill a new hole for it to be even like that?

nope no drilling. Dale used the hole for the outside air temp sensor bracket and moved that to another hole instead.

guess it worked out that i was working on my day off... as always. dale did an awesome job and these suckers are freaking LOUD! can't wait to get mine in, but i prefer the stealth look. i just want them to HEAR ME. ;)

Ah, I guess that works too.

Nice color match! Lucky for you guys, I had to take my bumper off to get to the horns. Evo has some weak horns.

BTW. Got the Spring presser things?

Ah, I guess that works too.

You'll just have to use a different size bolt, a smaller one.

Mine are fine where they are, they are out of the way.
I love that color match though. Good job. Don't forget to floss. Tooth.

nice Phil, those look great. Can we get a pic from a little further back?

Looks great, Phil.:)

I'll get a pic today of how it looks further back. I took one yesterday but it was dark and overcast... you couldn't see the horns.

looks good phil i was gonna do this with the tc too even paint them white =)
i have them on the trix and theyre fun to mess with

Well if you need help JC let me know. I can at least paint them lol. I got white paint left over.

those put u in SM now! :p

those put u in SM now! :p

HAHA yeah right :D

You should take off the black thing behind the center of the grill. That way you can see them completely. A buddy did this to his 06 and it looks a lot cleaner. All we did was remove it and paint the bolts flat black.

looks even more like a pig now!

i spy a big brake kit

that sounds like a good idea... but doesn't that piece protect the hood latch from dust, bugs and other stuff from coming through?

LOL. with amount of dust there is when driving, that little piece of plastic is not going to help you much.

oh ya and when/if you have a security system be sure to hook these up
some of my bros friends hit my car with a basketball and the alarm went off and damn i was blasting some guitar heroes and i could still hear it go off serves them right tho for hitting my car.
they hit my car ill make them go deaf hah

i have been banned from the engine bay and just about all things wiring related.... i am still cringing thinking about trying to fix my current wiring nightmare from the car pc disaster.

startin to wonder if I want the hella's. I make the mistake of setting off my car alarm at least twice a month and every time its so friggin loud that it almost scares the crap out of me. with the hellas it might not be almost anymore.

those put u in SM now! :p

mu hu hahaha...would be fun with more people in SM. Although its already pretty competitive!

so whats with the instruction manual for the brembo gran turismo brake kit?

Was wondering the same thing.

why would we install those in the STI? they come standard on the car. ;)

its from the brake upgrade performed on the Legasti.
